Large Croaking Wooden Frog - Carved Jempinis Wood
This large carved frog is a traditional Balinese percussion piece, made from Jempinis wood and finished with a smooth, hand-carved back that produces a deep, resonant croak when the included wooden stick is rubbed along its ridges.
Spiritual meaning and symbolism
In many folk traditions, the frog is associated with renewal, abundance and good fortune, often linked to rain and fertility because of its connection to water. As a musical object it carries a playful, grounding energy, valued for the way it brings sound, movement and a touch of nature into a room.
How to use
- Hold the frog firmly in one hand and run the wooden stick along the ridges on its back in a steady rhythm
- Vary the pressure and speed for softer or louder croaking tones
- Use it as a simple rhythm instrument during drumming sessions, storytelling or playful music activities
- Display it on a shelf or desk as a decorative piece when not being played
- Wipe with a dry cloth and keep away from damp or direct sunlight to preserve the wood
