Does anyone know of a decent source for pin frogs? I am making some
ikebana pots and can only find singles at high prices. I will check on
Potterbarter, but wanted to ask you guys too. Thanks!=20

Check the archives. Seems like there was a source given some years ago.

Also, "Down To Earth" in Eugene, OR has some. You may be able to buy
wholesale.

Suzanne...


Just google "kenzan" You'll find a number of sources. We dealt with stone
lantern in Vermont I think it was who were very nice and helpful. Good
Kenzan are not cheap. Cheap Kenzan are not good. And if you are trying to
sell vases to someone who truly knows Ikebana, they will know if you are
using cheap ones. You can not do good arrangements with cheap pin frogs
because the pins are too far apart.

Suzanne,

I was in the floral industry, and i used to buy frogs at FSS.com. they have
local store where I live in SoCal, but they will ship. downside to them is
you have to be a business. you can do a search on the site. they have
several differnt frogs for decent prices
