This cast iron "Mosque" still bank, created by the A.C. Williams Company in the 1920s, is a charming example of early 20th century American folk art. The stylized depiction of a mosque, with its distinctive dome and arched windows, reflects a growing interest in exotic and faraway cultures during this period. The bank's intricate design and small size, measuring only 3 5/8 x 2 1/2 x 1 5/8 in, make it an intriguing collectible for art lovers and toy enthusiasts alike. The bank's gold-toned finish adds a touch of elegance to its whimsical form.
