    This is a lucky buy! Offer accepted at 31£ :-D

    Seller's pics didn't show the dragonfly maker's mark, only the 900...

    It has lovely glass eyes, enamel is in good condition.

    Only a gentle clean needed! (Pics 3 and 4 are as received.)

    1" or 2.54cm length and width.

      What an incredible brooch, just incredible, the detail, the enameling, the color, but more than that, the personality of the little creature shines through, that is true artistry and quality in this piece, properly a work of art, no question. Love it! :)

      You surely have the most unique jewelry collection of bugs and animals . It is just awesome and I love them all !
    7. Elisabethan Elisabethan, 8 years ago
      Wow kyra! This little frog is a Diamond! The enamel is wonderful and I love its chubby little belly :) meaning it's nice even on that side of the frog. Lucky you! I'm very weak on enamel.

      Such a clever buyer - you know what's good!

      Katherine, thank you, your comment is WOW! I think the personnality of Mr Frog shines through his little glass eyes, so malicious :-)

      Manikin, so pleased to see you! Don't know if my collection is unique, but sure it fill me with happiness, and joy from sharing and getting your appreciation :-) Thank you!

      Elisabethan, very fond of enamel too! The underside is even very "frog like" and funny too. Thank you for your visit, love and comment!

      Karen, as for glass, it's all about feeling and clues you get from the pics ;-)
      Thank you so much!

      Big collective thanks to all 16 lovers !!!

      Cool. Never seen a frog before.
    11. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Yes, Jewels1900, not seen another yet! They made fishes, cats, parrots, bats too but rather in plique à jour enamel... Hoping to get one one day :-)
      Thank you my friend!

      Thank you Tora, Paul, Marga, Zowie, Trey and Alan for joining the froggie's lovers ;-))
    12. Jewels1900 Jewels1900, 8 years ago
      I've also seen seagulls & owls. I love the owls.
    13. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      Right, Jewels1900, I forgot to say those too...
      Oooh the necklace with the owl, absolute cracker!
    14. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago

      This is Lovely, does it open? Lucky is always so much fun!! :)
      Got my daughter a blinged out frog at a hobby shop. It was for another purpose but turned out it opened up. One of the eye crystals was missing so I replaced it with one of her first diamond earring as a youngin wanting her ears pierced. She still put it in her overhead cabinet. :( . One of these days....;)
    16. kyratango kyratango, 8 years ago
      OGF, no, it doesn't open, it is only a brooch :-)
      You're a doctor for frogs! Opening it and replace an eye, that's chirurgy, lol!
      Thank you for your visit and appreciation!

      Many thanks to all of you, 29 lovers :-D
