Tadpole Print Frog® Glass Baren
A compact glass baren for small-scale relief printing and detailed handprinting projects.
The Tadpole Print Frog® Glass Baren is a petite, precision printmaking tool handcrafted from solid borosilicate glass. Designed for artists who work on a smaller scale, this compact baren is well suited to mini relief blocks, collage, delicate folded papers, and fine-detail projects.
Its smaller footprint offers a different feel from our larger glass barens while retaining the solid-glass construction that makes the Print Frog® distinctive. Hold it comfortably in your hand and explore the art of handprinting without a printing press or wooden spoon.

Is the Tadpole Right for Your Classroom?
Because of its smaller size and lighter grip, the Tadpole is not recommended for young artists or general classroom use. For educators and group workshops, we recommend the Studio Print Frog® Glass Baren, which provides better balance and broader printing coverage.
