This product is a large vintage Silvestri Bros 1966 handmade chalkware black poodle coin bank, standing at 18 inches tall. Chalkware is a material commonly used in the mid-20th century to create decorative and detailed sculptures, typically lightweight and easy to work with. This unique and eye-catching coin bank features a charming poodle design, making it a desirable collectible item for animal lovers and collectors of vintage memorabilia.

Super cute, does have some nicks throughout. No major damage or repairs. The colors are still very nice. Hand painted ceramic. The back hole is permanent and will need to be cut out later on if you end up using it as a bank. You can then just add a plastic lid afterwards. It definitely needs a good cleaning and is not in mint condition, see all photos, expect wear consistent from age but above still stands. See all photos, any questions please ask.
