a bunch of hair brushes sitting on top of each other

Lot of antique and vintage zinc metal flower frogs in an assortment of shapes and sizes. These are all the needle sharp pin style frogs, they work well even for grasses and wildflowers! The largest measures about 4 1/2" long, and the smallest is 1" in diameter. All could use a good cleaning, they're as found out of a farm estate.

Lot of six old clear glass flower frogs and one flower frog with a glass bowl. These range in size from about 2 1/2" to 5" in diameter (the largest is the one with the bowl). Nearly all of these have roughness and / or serious chips from use. They'd work fine in pottery planters and vases, or in colored glass where the chips won't show!

I have become obsessed with vintage flower frogs, thanks to Danavee at The Vintage Grove. I've been scouring flea markets hoping to find one of my own. I wanted one of the really old flower frogs with the sharp, pointy tines. Most flower frogs are round and I would have been quite content with a round one.
