Refined piece of silverware, a timeless classic that combines the value of precious metal with charming design.
It is a piggy bank in the shape of a little pig, a universal symbol of abundance, luck, and prosperity, crafted entirely of SOLID 925 SILVER (Sterling Silver). Unlike common silver-plated reproductions, this piece possesses intrinsic value thanks to its generous weight (173 grams).
Subject and Style: The design is soft and rounded, with a mirror-like finish that enhances its curves. The details of the face, ears, and tail are meticulously crafted. It is a classic "grandmother's" item or a special gift (for a baptism, birth, or first communion), designed to last and increase in value. The bottom features a cap and the relevant legal hallmarks certifying the silver fineness (925) and the manufacturer.
