Vintage Holmegaard piggy bank, Jacob E Bang. Danish retro Cobalt Royal blue glass, kids money box. Dimpled spot hobnail hollow pig figurine

A beautiful rich Royal/Cobalt blue Holmegaard piggy bank. The design is attributed to Jacob E Bang for Holmegaard, Denmark. I believe this little fellow is late 1960s or 1970s vintage.

Pressed moulded/formed hollow glass figurine with cute love heart shaped snout, spotty/hobnail design and a curly tail. The rich dark blue is pearlescent around his snout.

Roughly 12 x 8 x 8cm. Very good condition. The slot looks decent and straight - many of these slots are wonky or chipped within from manufacturing processes. Being pressed glass there are some visible moulding lines. Very useable, displayable and presentable.

Great for a modern or mid-century home. More for display for a grown-up, than for a child's toy - although it would look fab out of reach in a nursery! Becoming increasingly scarce as the only way to empty them is to smash them.
