This unique cast iron dog moneybox makes a real impact. Cast from high-quality iron and carefully handpainted, it makes a perfect ornamental item for display on shelves, bookcases or tables. The dog is finished in handpainted dark brown, with lighter tones highlighting the details around its face and body. The dog is wearing a black collar with brass-coloured buckle and studs, and has red coloured lips. As a mechanical moneybox, the dog’s arm is fully articulated, meaning that when you place a coin in its paw and pull the lever, the dog’s arm moves to its mouth, depositing the coin inside for safe-keeping. This really is an eye-catching item, perfect both for display as an ornament in its own right, or also as a gift to younger people to teach them the value of saving.
