Gratitoad

Preserved in copper, this electroformed mummified frog beautifully captures the textures and details of its natural form.

Throughout history, frogs have symbolized transformation, renewal, and fertility. In ancient Egypt, the frog represented the goddess Heket, linked to fertility and childbirth. Their life cycle—from tadpole to frog—embodies growth and change, making them symbols of personal transformation. In Christianity, frogs appear in the plagues of Egypt, representing divine judgment, yet in other cultures, they symbolize good fortune and prosperity, like the Chinese "Money Frog." In Native American traditions, frogs are linked to rain and healing. Overall, frogs remind us of life's cyclical nature, renewal, and the power of change.

The Details That Matter

Ethical Origins

At the heart of our craftsmanship is a commitment to ethical sourcing. We use materials that are responsibly gathered, often from natural occurrences such as roadkill, ensuring that no life is taken specifically for our art. This approach not only honors the natural cycle but also imbues our creations with a profound symbolic meaning: celebrating the beauty that endures even after life’s end.

Care

Its recommended that art pieces be displayed out of direct sunlight to maintain the specimens’ vibrant detail.

All our electroformed jewelry are made from 100% pure copper. To keep the copper looking as beautiful as possible, you can let it naturally patina, which happens over time, or you can polish your jewelry to keep it shiny. Remove copper jewelry before bathing and swimming.
