Many people place one near the entrance or a workspace facing inward — a meaningful piece of feng shui home decor.

A brief rinse is fine, but dry it promptly rather than soaking. To cleanse its energy, many people use moonlight, sound, or gentle smoke. Frequently asked questions What is the Jade Prosperity Frog? It's a hand-carved jade figure of the classic three-legged money frog (Chan Chu), often shown with a coin. This is a decorative/symbolic piece, not a health product or medical device. Is jade water-safe? Yes, jade is a hard, stable stone and can be rinsed briefly with water, though it's best dried right after rather than soaked for long periods. Is this piece safe for daily display or sunlight? Yes, jade holds up well in normal indoor light and doesn't fade like some softer stones, so it's fine left out as an everyday piece. How do I cleanse and charge this carving? Many people cleanse jade with a brief rinse, moonlight, sound, or gentle incense smoke, then set an intention as they return it to display. How can I tell if the jade is real? Natural jade shows subtle variation in tone and detailing from piece to piece and feels cool and dense to the touch; a jeweler can confirm authenticity if you'd like certainty. Where should I place the money frog? In feng shui tradition, many people place it near an entrance or workspace facing inward, rather than facing the door directly — treat this as a traditional practice, not a guaranteed outcome.
