Antiques of London

We are delighted to offer for sale this Lovely 1920s Antique Brass Piggy Bank.

 The piggy bank would resemble an actual pig with all the features that the animal has, such as ears, snout, curly tail, and four hoofs. 

The brass used is of high quality, with some etchings or hand-carved designs on its body. The patina of the brass indicates its age and use over time - it may have a slightly darker colour or visible signs of wear on areas that were frequently handled.

The coin slot for depositing coins is located on top of the pig's back and the keyhole will be found at the bottom to empty it.

Overall, this antique decorative brass piggy bank is unique in style and craftsmanship and embody the elegance and artistry.

of the 1920s era.

We have lightly polished the brass and left plenty of lovely patina on it.

On the bottom, there's the original lid with screw thread to take out the coins 

Condition-wise, there will be some patina and cosmetic wear here and there, which proves its age.
