Howdy!

I collect frogs and I collect cobalt blue glass (mostly vases). I have not been able to find a cobalt blue frog. Has anyone seen one?

Oh, also I have one that my mom gave me for my birthday that she got from an antique store. It's a clear candy dish looking vase with silver flowers on the outside and then the frog sits in the mouth of the vase. I've never seen a two-piece one!

My other favorite is a lime green carnival glass frog. It practically glows!!!

Happy frogging!

I've only seen clear glass frogs (in addition to the metal ones). I love cobalt glass! I'm glad there are other frog lovers out there. :-)

nice article

I grab up any frogs I find, glass or metal

I find clear ones mostly, did find a yellow glass one
never seen one in cobalt, --I think they stayed light to not show too much and take away from the arrangement

Thanks! It's useful to have a collection of frogs in different sizes... no worries about having one big enough (or small enough) for a given container. :-)

Thank y'all for the responses. Maybe I'm looking for something that does not exist!?!
Anyway, happy Spring!!!
