The Frog Prince is based on the tale of that name by the Brothers Grimm, and made of mammoth tusk that has been combined with ebony and gold. The skin patternation of the ivory frog has been rendered exceptionally lifelike by the firing technique used by the work’s creator; imitation book pages, owls, and an oak leaf are also made of mammoth ivory.
Made principally of the same material, the book cover is decorated with gold overlay, forming the book’s title. Sitting on an oak leaf, a gold ladybug is covered with enamel and decorated with diamonds. At the feet of the frog lies the ball of gold which, according to the fairytale, leads the Frog Prince to the princess, and his restoration.
