The Frog Acrobats are really a frog dance of death, because the original model was a dessicated frog that lay, semi-circular, on a branch. I had it cast – first in silver, then twice to shape a bracelet. Then we enlarged it, and these Frog Acrobats came into being, crawling all over each other, full of beans – the topmost one is even trying to jump with huge ski sticks! Another Spoerri resurrection!
