Watch out, dragonfly! This hungry frog may never catch his prey, but you'll enjoy watching him try. This kinetic sculpture rocks gently with each passing breeze. It's mounted on a footed stake for stability. Made of steel with a clear protective coating, it will gradually rust over time.

Mobile art to accent your yard

Finely balanced to move with a gentle breeze

Comments about Rocking Frog Sculpture:

I placed this item in my yard and within a week it started rusting. I would not recommend this item unless it were more reasonably priced. Also, I had to do some major bending to get the frog to balance properly.

Comments about Rocking Frog Sculpture:

This was a birthday gift to my daughter in law in Memphis, TN. She is an avid gardener. She called me immediately to thank me. It combined 2 of her favorite outdoor creatures, frog and dragonfly. I have always admired it in the catolog and when I saw that it was on sale I immediately purchased it. Thank-you, Edith Bengtson

Comments about Rocking Frog Sculpture:

This is a really cute addition to a garden. I was going to put it in a front flower bed, but after seeing how the frog piece justs sets on the support, I was afraid it might get blown off in a storm and be lost. So I put it in an herb pot outside the back door. I love it there. I smile everytime I go past it. I don't know how well it wears, since I just put it in a couple of weeks ago.

Comments about Rocking Frog Sculpture:

We decided that this would make a great gift for a friend who is going to build a koi pond this coming summer. She was delighted to receive it and already has it positioned in her yard near where the pond will be constructed. She tells us she really enjoys watching it and that the frog doesn't seem to mind the snow that has fallen.

Was smaller than I thought-My Bad?

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Rocking Frog Sculpture:

The design is cute but I didn't read the specs well enough and so I was a bit disappointed that it seemed smaller to me than I thought it would be. Would be cuter if they did some 'cut-out' designs on the frog's back, like a real frog's pattern?

The product was much lighter weight than I had expected. I fear that a breeze of any significance at all will blow it off its perch.
