Sold on the Etsy page The Charming Frog, these intricately designed and hand-carved soaps take after animals, mystical sea creatures and even classic paintings.
At first glance, these soaps appear to be miniature plastic animals and models of other familiar objects but are actually bath accessories. Designs include a peacock, a puppy, elephants and even a tableaux of a bear ready to eat some fish. The intricacy and detailing of these products makes the hand-carved soaps almost too beautiful to use for their intended purpose.
While they may be too striking for everyday use, these soaps are perfect for those looking to impress a house guest and are a memorable gift item.
