Why Choose the Studio Print Frog® Glass Baren™?
Ergonomic Design for Comfort: The rounded handle provides natural wrist movement, reducing strain while giving even pressure for clean prints.
Versatile Use: Perfect for small to medium relief blocks such as linoleum, wood, and MDF. Works well on fabric, collagraph, damaged blocks, and chine-collé. Not recommended for encaustic monoprinting.
Hand-Blown Recycled Glass — Made in Texas: Each Studio Print Frog® is unique, crafted from recycled glass by skilled artisans. Slight variations in size, shape, and color are part of the tool’s charm. Tiny air bubbles in the top of the handle are normal in handmade glass and are not defects.
Tested & Approved by the Creator: Matt Bagley personally hand-tests every baren to ensure quality, balance, and durability.
Authentic Iron Frog Press Tool: Look for the distinctive Frog logo to ensure authenticity and top-quality craftsmanship.
