Frog shaped ceramic container

Frog shaped ceramic container

This frog shaped container has its body carved into a crouching posture, with a handle and water outlet on its back. Decorated with black, yellow, brown, and red paint, with horizontal black lines on the surface to represent the rough skin of frogs. The dots on the back and chin may represent the markings of the Marangon Poison Frog, named after the toxic chemicals it secretes as weapons against predators. The strong substance secreted by Poison Arrow Frog has also been used as medicine. Usually lives in rainforests, near rivers and lakes. Due to the destruction of its natural habitat, the Malan Weng Poison Frog is considered an endangered species.
