The celebrated American jeweler David Webb transformed a simple frog into an irresistible brooch. Its white enamel, raised gold spirals, and ruby eyes make it an ideal piece on a lapel or shoulder. Give it a kiss and who knows what you might find.
- Jewelry type: frog brooch.
- Condition: excellent condition, with light wear consistent with age and use. The white enamel is well preserved.

- Style: 1960s jewelry, from the distinctive Warty Frog family by David Webb. Its rounded, crouching form is brought to life by raised gold spiral spots and sinuous gold lines on white enamel.
- Period: 1960s to 1970s.
- Source of inspiration: nature and lucky symbolism.

- Additional information: David Webb frogs had already become iconic by 1964, when a Life magazine article devoted to the designer and his Coty Award featured frog brooches on a lily pad in a stream. Their lasting appeal is easy to understand: collectors who start with one piece often end up delightfully surrounded by frogs.
- Stones: two cabochon-cut rubies forming the frog's eyes.
