 ;D ;D ;D ;D Oh, It's "Bats in the Belfry!" I have a ton of books on jewelry. I'll check tomorrow. I would have a jeweler look at it. It could be worth it! Cogar is right! It could be worth $$$.

I can't find anything similar to yours. The ones I were thinking of were Danish, but I still would have it checked by a jeweler. If Wendy would check in I'm sure she might know something.

These are quite common on Asian markets, although this does have some age to it. Obviously frogs feature in the religious texts and cautionary tales of many cultures.
