Equal parts playful and sophisticated, the deep emerald-green basin is molded in the shape of a textured lotus leaf, cradled by three incredibly detailed figural frogs acting as sculptural tripod feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12,2\"\u003eThe true artistry of this piece lies in its high-relief, three-dimensional elements: a striking, open pink water lily blossom accompanied by a tightly wound pink bud climbs the front wall of the bowl on a thorn-detailed stem.

Use warm water, a mild dish soap, and a soft-bristled brush or microfiber cloth to clean the crevices.
