Keren Kopal
Green Frog Exercising on Bench Trinket Box
This item is part of the Frog Trinket Box Series and part of the Keren Kopal collection.
Capture a moment of playful determination and humorous ambition with this hand-sculpted masterpiece. Captured mid-workout, a vibrant green frog lies locked into a silver-plated incline bench, hands folded behind its head as it completes a rigorous sit-up. Designed with extraordinary character and detail, the frog features a warm golden chest, sculpted abdominal detail, and gleaming green Swarovski crystal eyes that stare upward in focused concentration. Additional clear and green Austrian crystals are hand-set across its webbed feet and the structural joints of the workout bench, catching the light with every angle. The true ingenuity of this design lies in its functional sculpture. The frog's torso lifts along a concealed hinge, held securely by a hidden magnetic fastener to reveal a hand-enameled internal storage compartment created specifically for rings, cufflinks, or tiny personal keepsakes. Inside, Keren Kopal’s signature metal plate is permanently inlaid as an official seal of limited-edition authenticity
