This large ceramic piggy bank from Italy, dating to the 1970s, stands out with its geometric, stylized animal form, featuring a compact, rectangular body with subtly rounded edges and sculpted legs and head. Crafted from ceramic with a smooth, highly glossy surface, its primary color is a vivid, saturated red-orange glaze, applied by hand. The piggy bank is adorned with expressive, hand-painted floral and abstract motifs in shades of orange, yellow, and black, with black outlines providing contrast and depth. Measuring 19 cm in length, 9.5 cm in width, and 15 cm in height, it encapsulates the playful, artistic character typical of Italian retro design rooted in mid-century modern aesthetics.

The energetic glaze reflects light, revealing the lively temperament of Italian design—where color experimentation met playful form. The hand-painted details evoke the atmosphere of artisanal
