If you love to hunt for treasures and give your home an extra soul, you've certainly come across it. Long forgotten on our grandmothers' shelves, the vintage flower frog is making a sensational comeback in our contemporary interiors. This antique object, both utilitarian and highly aesthetic, seduces with its poetry, robustness, and modularity.
Today, we are proud to unveil our brand new exclusive collection. Entirely composed of carefully selected pieces, our range showcases glass flower frogs in all their forms: from completely translucent models to sophisticated pieces adorned with precious mounts.
What is a glass flower frog and why adopt it?
Born from the need to keep stems straight and arrange floral compositions harmoniously, the flower frog (sometimes called a glass "hedgehog") is a heavy glass block pierced with multiple holes. Unlike current synthetic green foams that pollute and deteriorate, old glass is eternal, washable, and infinitely reusable.
Beyond its ecological aspect, the antique flower frog vase offers incredible creative freedom. It allows you to create minimalist "Ikebana" bouquets or very dense structures with just a few sprigs of wildflowers, tulips, or dried flowers.
Did you know? In the past, these objects were not just functional: they proudly sat at the center of festive tables, reflecting candlelight through the facets of their cut glass.
Discover our range: With or without a mount, there's a style for everyone
Because every interior has its own identity, our selection is based on two main aesthetic families to mix and accumulate without moderation:
1. Raw glass flower frogs (without mount)
Sleek, geometric, and wonderfully luminous, the all-glass models are self-sufficient. Their shapes vary: perfect spheres, faceted domes, massive rectangles, or models in the shape of small corollas. They integrate perfectly into modern, Scandinavian, or bohemian interiors, bringing a touch of transparency and freshness to a sideboard.
2. Flower frogs with metal or silver mounts
For a decidedly cozy, romantic, or "country chic" ambiance, turn to our models with a peripheral structure. Whether it's a patinated silver metal mount, gold metal, or pewter, the mount transforms the flower frog into a true piece of silverware. We also have rare pieces with animal shapes, such as sublime silver metal swans that cradle the glass block in their heart.
How to repurpose your antique flower frogs in your decor?
The advantage of vintage is that there are no rules! While the flower frog is perfect for holding flowers from your garden, it also excels in the art of everyday object repurposing:
On a desk: Use it as a pen holder, quill holder, or to display your most beautiful postcards and retro photos.
In the bathroom: It becomes an original and chic holder for your makeup brushes or toothbrushes.
Fall for our exclusive selection
Each piece in our online store has been carefully cleaned to remove traces of past limescale, while retaining the authentic patina that gives it all its charm. Stock is, by definition, limited to one item per model.
