Frog Lying on a Lily Pad Porcelain Limoges Box
A frog stretches out on a lily pad, soaking up the sun as though the whole pond belongs to him. This hinged porcelain figurine box was painted by hand in Limoges, France.
Lazy Days on the Lily Pad
Frogs have been lucky charms and garden favorites in many cultures, and few creatures look as content as one lounging on a lily pad. This piece captures that easygoing mood, a little reminder to slow down and enjoy a summer afternoon.

Leaping Into a New Home
Frog collectors are a loyal group, and this piece makes a cheerful addition for someone who already has dozens.

Claude Monet painted the water lilies of his garden at Giverny again and again, and this frog brings a small, playful echo of that French garden to any shelf.
