EAST ASIA’S BIG TOAD · with a red dragonfly guest
Hand-Painted Detail
Every scale, feather and marking is painted by hand to match the real animal — so detailed up close, so charming on the shelf.
Ready to Display
A single, sturdy piece — no assembly, no fuss. Set it on a desk or shelf and it holds its pose, ready to collect and show off.
Plump, unbothered and gloriously warty, the Asiatic toad is one of the most familiar amphibians across China and its neighbors. This scene sets one on a mossy stone by the water, chin up and belly round, while a scarlet dragonfly lands on a twisted twig just out of reach — for now.
One Toad, Many Names
Bufo gargarizans goes by several English names — Asiatic toad, Chinese toad and Chusan Island toad — and it is common across much of China.
Strings of Pearls
In spring a female lays two long strings of eggs, each 1.5–2.3 m long, holding anywhere from about 1,200 to 7,400 eggs in all.
Winter Sleeper
Depending on the region, it hibernates from autumn into spring, burrowed into soil or resting at the bottom of rivers and lakes more than a meter deep.
Toad Lore
Toads hold a lucky place in Chinese folk art — the legendary three-legged ‘money toad’ is a classic charm for prosperity. Ours has all four legs, but the good-luck vibes come included.
