Description
A cast steel frog with a bumpy back and long spread toes, made for pond walls, gates and garden posts. This badge is 95mm long and 100mm across the legs: a frog seen from above with raised eyes, a back covered in small round bumps, front legs bent forwards and back legs folded alongside. It is about 17mm deep with a hollow back and flat edge, ready to weld or bolt. The price shown is for one frog, with a minimum order of 5.
Why choose this badge
Right at home by water. A frog climbing a pond wall, sitting on a gate by a stream or hiding on a fence post is a charming garden detail that always gets noticed.
One of our most popular badges. It is among our best-reviewed cast ornaments, bought again and again for gardens, gates and gifts.
Real texture. The bumpy back, raised eyes and long toes are cast in deep relief, so it looks good both painted and left to weather.
Hollow back. The back is hollow with a flat edge, which keeps the weight to about 0.25 kg and gives a neat rim to weld or drill through.
Where it is used
Pond walls and edges, garden gates and railings, fence and gate posts, sheds, rockeries, wildlife and children's gardens, and indoor features.

Fitting and care
Hold the frog in place at the angle you want before marking the fixing holes, as a slight diagonal looks as if it is climbing. Drill through the feet where the holes will be least visible, or weld round the edge on a steel gate.
Degrease, then prime with a zinc-rich or metal primer before painting. A green or bronze finish suits a pond. Near water, galvanising before painting gives the longest life. Use stainless screws so they do not stain the stone.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one frog?
Yes, it is for one frog badge, with a minimum order of 5. For a larger quantity, call us for a price.
Is it painted?
No. It is raw cast steel and will rust if left bare outdoors, so prime and paint it, or galvanise it, once it is fixed.
Is it solid?
No. It is hollow underneath with a flat edge, which keeps the weight down and makes it easy to fix.
Can it go next to a pond?
Yes, but keep it above the water line and protect it well with paint or galvanising, as steel kept wet will rust quickly.
Are all the frogs exactly the same?
They are cast from the same pattern, but cast parts vary by a millimetre or two and the surface texture varies slightly from one casting to the next.
