La Symbolique des Laques Kame Kaéru Koi - Frog & Hydrangea:
Venerated since the dawn of time in Asia, the frog is the symbol of returning. Its name, kaeru, also means “return.†The frog is known for its faithfulness legend says that it always returns to its starting point, no matter how great the distance. Living along rivers and rice paddies, the frog has always been very close to Man. It is naturally associated with prosperity in an essentially agricultural, rice-growing economy. Its croaking is often heard in spring, the season of renewal. And if it decides to live in someone’s garden, it protects that person from danger and bad luck.
Paired with the hydrangea, the frog is one of the most glorified animals in Far-Eastern mythical traditions. This association symbolises patience—the same patience that has enabled Zohiko’s craftsmen to depict the frog on the watch dial. Its glistening eye is made using the hirame technique, which consists of spreading hirame powder before applying a lacquer that is to be darkened its body captures the light thanks to momidashi polishing done with oil stones. The kakiwari technique, which reveals the underlying layer of lacquer, is used to depict the detailed veining in the plants’ leaves. The regular round pools, which seem to ripple away to infinity on the dial, reflect the calm and serenity that emanate from this watch.
