Great find at Avila Beach, any one know what it is.

by Jon
(San Jose, CA)

it is 5 inches by 3/4 inches, I thought it was plastic but it is glass. There are no marks, letters or anything like that to help tell what it is.

Definitely looks like a flower frog for arranging flowers. I had one that was glass that I bought through "Princess House" - Interesting find.

by:

It's a flower frog. It probably once had a matching vase and your lid sat on top of the vase. It was used for flower arranging. The 'frog' held the flowers in place. Here is a link that talks about it:

This looks to me like a flower frog, which they used to put in the bottom of bowls and vases to keep the flowers set upright. Cool find on a beach.
