The fine Art of Saving - in trendy Blue Jeans Look.
THEOsaurus, Theo for short, is the name of this high-quality porcelain piggy bank. His name comes from the Latin term 'thesaurus' (treasure).

Piggy banks were invented in Asia Minor 4,000 years ago, and they have since spread around the world. They were once small chests in which savings were kept. Today, piggy banks are more rare than they once were, and Theo is, for this reason, all the more special. He stands there a proud, self-assured piggy bank, one of the last of his kind with his own story: His design originated from Martin Schatz, a product designer from Berlin in cooperation with Lee Kmji, a product designer from Busan/South Korea.

Theo is produced in Thuringia by Wallendorfer Porzellanmanufaktur, a German porcelain manufacturer founded in 1764 and steeped in tradition.

The 'shoes' of the standing Theo are made from actual cork, a premium natural product, and are produced by the oldest cork specialist in Germany - the firm of Eugen Hackenschuh.

Theo 'blue jeans' is supplied with a 32-pages booklet 'Wer den Pfennig nicht ehrt... - Die kleinste Kulturgeschichte des Sparens' (German only) plus gift box.
