This amber glass "Piggy Bank" is a charming example of a 20th-century still bank. The object's form and size is typical of the period, with a simple, stylized design. The pig's form is rendered in relief with a textured surface that adds visual interest. The inscription "Piggy Bank" is carved into the side, adding a decorative touch. This object would have been a familiar sight in many homes, reminding children of the importance of saving.
