Big Eyed Chalkware Turtle And Snail Piggy Bank

$19.00

Details

Made in Taiwan circa 1980’s, this turtle bank is hand painted in colors of green, orange, pink and brown. The dapper turtle is sporting a hat and bow tie and has his snail friend at his side. The anthropomorphic turtle bank is in very good pre owned condition. I found one glaze chip on the back of the hat and several tiny spots where it was not painted. It is missing its rubber plug. Please see all photos for details on condition.

Measurements: 5 3/4"H x2 3/4"W x3 3/4"D Weight: 9 oz

    Selling since August 2023

    The impetus for my shop came to me when sorting boxes of treasures that had been left to me by various relatives. They were taking up too much space in my home and I wanted them to be with someone who would showcase, appreciate and enjoy them. In thinking about a name, I decided on Pangibles Vintage. I appropriated the name from one of my cousins who left me with many beautiful heirlooms, some of which are listed in my shop. She owned a small gift shop in the early 1970’s on the upper East side of Manhattan called Pangibles Gifts. Prior to opening the shop, she worked for Proctor and Gamble (otherwise known as P and G). She must have loved the work because she named her little little Shih Tzu pup Pangible…and then named the shop after her pooch. In tribute to her, Pangibles is open for business once again.
