Pictuure by Heather Galler, Frog Candle Holder, Crane On A Turtle

This elegant metal sculpture depicts a graceful crane perched atop a turtle, creating a striking vertical composition. The crane’s distinctive long neck curves in a classic S-shape, with its slender beak pointing skyward in a dignified pose. The bird’s wings are folded against its body, emphasizing its statuesque quality, while its long legs extend down to rest on the turtle’s shell below. The turtle, rendered in careful detail with its characteristic shell pattern, serves as a sturdy base for the towering crane. The entire piece appears to be crafted from bronze or similar dark metal with a rich, weathered patina that gives it an antique appearance. This type of sculpture often symbolizes longevity and wisdom, combining the crane’s associations with grace and patience with the turtle’s representation of endurance and stability.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This appears to be a decorative metal frog sculpture. The piece has a charming, whimsical design with the frog sitting in a relaxed pose, its limbs spread out naturally. The frog’s body shows detailed craftsmanship with a textured surface that suggests it’s made from bronze or similar dark metal with a patinated finish. What’s particularly delightful about this piece is the circular opening or hollow in the frog’s back, which could serve as a small planter, candle holder, or simply as a decorative element. The sculpture has a folk art quality to it, with the frog’s proportions and positioning giving it a friendly, approachable character. The different angles in your photos show how the piece has dimension and weight to it, suggesting it’s a substantial decorative object that would work well in a garden setting or as indoor décor.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
