Flower Frog Collections
Most popular during the first half of the 20th century, flower frogs were used to arrange flowers and were likely called "frogs" because they were set in water. Made from ceramic, glass or metal, flower frogs came in a great variety of forms.
I collect two styles, blocks and lids. Blocks were often sold with a matching bowl, and the flower stems were placed in the holes of the "frog" as it set in water in a bowl. Lids were sold with a vase, and the flower stems were placed through the holes and down into the water.
