The Dotty Frog in Shaded Brown is covered in spots — round, chenille-textured dots in dusty blue-grey, scattered evenly across deep chocolate brown silk velvet and continuing down each leg to the feet. The effect is graphic and quietly naturalistic at once, closer in feeling to a field guide illustration than a decorative object, though it is unmistakably both.
Designed in Germany and made by hand in India, each Dotty Frog is embroidered on the frame, piece by piece, with fabric dyed to Drechsel's own colour specifications. The Shaded Brown colourway — that particular pairing of warm brown and cool blue — has the specificity of something observed rather than invented.
