The frog is a symbol of fertility in many cultures. The Romans linked frogs to Aphrodite and the Egyptians to the shape-shifting goddess Heket who was a patron of childbirth and one of the midwives who assisted in the birth of the Sun.

To the Chinese, frogs symbolized the moon - the lunar, yin principle" bringing healing and prosperity and they were symbols of rebirth and renewal. Because frogs need watery places, their image was often used in occult rain charms.

In the Celtic tradition, each stream and spring had its own spirit, and frogs were considered the messengers of these water spirits.

Our Sterling Silver Frog Link Bracelet presents a linked chain of these leapfrogging amphibians.
