Jade Green Wealth Frog (with Gold Bar)

This mythical creature is said to appear every full moon near homes which the residents will receive good news the very next day. This is usually in the form of wealth or monetary gain. They are called "Chan Chu" in Chinese but is more commonly known as the Money Frog or the Three Legged Frog. In ancient China, these mythical Frog are believed to be the bringer of fortune. They are traditionally placed next to the Altar of the Earth God. The Three-Legged Money Frog holds a Chinese Coin in its mouth and sits on a pile of gold ingots.

Commonly used today as symbols of wealth, the Money Toad is placed near cash registrars, receptions, managers' desk and offices of many successful businesses in Oriental countries. At home the Money Toad is placed in the corners of the living room or family rooms to enhance wealth chi of the household.

The Money Frog or Chan Chu is kept in the corner diagonally across from the entrance to a room. The corner of a room is known to be the focal point where chi gathers. The Money Frog is placed in these corners to activate what is traditionally believed to be 'Wealth Luck' of the household.

The Chan Chu, made of imitation jade with a coin lodged in its mouth, is accompanied by a gold bar. The gold bar is a direct nod to auspicious Wealth luck and augments the money-making prospects of the Chan Chu. For the best Feng Shui, both items should be kept close together in convergence areas such as the living room or lounge.
