About the Item

Bring charm, playfulness, and authentic French bistrot tradition into your home with this delightful early 20th-century La Grenouille coin toss game, crafted in France circa 1920. Made of warm, honey-toned oak wood with original patinated metal targets (including the signature cast-iron frog), this whimsical piece was a classic entertainment in cafés and taverns throughout France. The objective is both simple and addictive: toss the iron coins toward the tabletop openings, aiming for the highest-value slots. The frog’s open mouth offers the ultimate reward, scoring an impressive 2000 points, while the surrounding traps and arches provide varying levels of challenge. Designed with slanted internal channels, each coin drops neatly into a numbered compartment below, making scoring easy and fast. This collectible antique game stands on a solid frame, retains its period hardware, and shows desirable wear consistent with decades of friendly competition. It is fully functional, displays beautifully, and comes complete with eleven matching throwing coins. (One leg is slightly warped but not wobbly. Shows it well in all of the photos). Dimensions: 18.5" W x 25.25" D x 35.5" H.
