Large Piggy Banks

[caudio51]

Anyone know of a site that sells like 3 foot high piggy banks? I want one of those large porcelain ones for the smoking room.

No, but that sounds awesome. Pics please when you finally achieve that goal.

How about these?

 

[caudio51]

ha, those are nice but I want a big guy hanging out in the corner.

I bet Alphonso could get you one in Mexico city

The taller ones are mostly plastic though.


My suggestion: Get a 5 gal glass water bottle (carboy)

Here's a big fiberglass pig. Not sure you're gonna fine one in porcelain...

I wouldn't mind this for my office...

There are many here, but I haven't seen a 3' one yet. The biggest I've seen are about 7". (Although let me know. They're clay and with mexican colours decorating.)

I like that and the way they used the resin it looks like it's carved out of wood to me.

i spent a bored half hour on this, i couldn't find anything over 18 in high. and that was cast iron.

 

[caudio51]

Yea I tried too...think I'm going to need to find a local artist that works with plaster/clay.

Checkout post #22, maybe that can be turned into a functional piggy bank?

No idea how or why I found this thread, but just curious if you ever found what you were looking for... Here's my "Piggy Bank"... My mom gave it to me at least 15 years ago... and she said it was old back then. No idea what the original contents were. It stands about 2 feet tall.

I used to have a giant porcelain Tigger piggy bank when I was a kid. I loved that thing. It broke at some point, though.
