Product Description

Amazon.com Review

With a wide bemused grin, the frog prince perched on Carruth's thermometer brings whimsy and character to your garden, porch, or patio. Cast from an original design by Carruth Studio, the plaque is made of stone concrete and will keep smiling season after season of weather. The impish conversation piece has been crafted with whimsical details, from the curled edges of the frog prince's throne to the silly smile on his bug friend's face. American sculptor George Carruth explains, "My desire is to provide original designs that not only plant a smile on your face." Introduce this wonderful character to your (or someone else's) garden and you may well find the frog prince's grin is contagious.

Product Description

An original design by sculptor George Carruth, the Frog Prince thermometer is handcast in stone with a patina finish. The perfect accessory for your home or garden, each piece arrives in an attractive gift box and includes a gift card.

4.0 out of 5 stars HOT THERMOMETER, June 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Carruth 168 Frog Prince Thermometer (Lawn & Patio)

I bought this thermometer at a garden center and it is of very good quality, not to mention the cool frog prince. It adds a bit of whimsy to a garden. If you don't care what the temperature is, buy it just for the frog!

Ok, I've been looking for a cool thermometer to put outside my window so I can wake up and see the temperature outside, this did it for me. I mean, you can find those things in sotres wehre they are just boring plastic thigns but thsi thing is so cool and funny!

It's bigger than I thought it would be, and looks even better. The frog just makes me laugh every morning because of the way it looks. It seems to be constructed well, and displays the temperature correctly.

It came very nicely packaged in a large box and very protected. I love this thing and I'll recomend it to anyone who wants a cool thermometer that isn't cheap plastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Item of Taste, November 22, 2002

This review is from: Carruth 168 Frog Prince Thermometer (Lawn & Patio)

I bought it for my parents and they got a kick out of it and put it up (it helped that our previous thermometer was faulty). However, it is purely a thing of taste. My mother loves frogs, so I bought something that had to do with frogs. If you're looking for any regular thermometer, I shouldn't understand why you would choose this one, but for the frog-lover this is the thing to get.

Buy and enjoy!
