Families used to make simple
coin banks out of a clay called
"pygg," and once a few potters misheard the request and made pig banks! The invention soon spread, creating a cultural institution. This priceless creation's an improvement over the older models,though: Instead of having to smash the bank when you need some cash, simply remove its cork snout and pour the money out. From artist David DeSalvo, the pig sports polka dots and matching red hooves. Handmade in Wisconsin. This item has been discontinued. When it sells out, it will no longer be available. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Nice ceramic piggy-bank, but the coin slot on top is not large enough to fit a quarter. Obviously a design error.

Comments aboutLITTLE PIGGY BANK:
I first saw this item featured in NY Magazine.\n\nI gave this to my niece for her 2nd birthday. I thought it was the perfect little gift since her birthday fell on the first day of Chinese new year (this is the year of the pig).\n\nMy brother and sister-in-law thought it was adorable and my niece loves putting her coins into it.

I bought this gift as a birthday present for my sister who i dont get to see very often. i live out of country for the time being and getting her such a classy and cute little piggy bank was great because she loves to travel and its a good way for her to collect some spare change to put towards a plane ticket to come visit me!

I purchased this as a baby gift for a couple that is not into traditional blue/pink baby gifts. They absolutely love it and put it right into the baby's room. It is so cute and just different enough to stand out in people's eyes!
