Terramundi Money Pot "Wishes and Dreams" Silver
Terramundi Money Pot ~ Wishes and Dreams Silver
The pot contains a fortune coin and comes with a desire card to insert when you start saving. These money pots will hold approximately £200 in mixed silver or £400 in gold coins.
Once the first coin is dropped the money pot must be fed until full upon which time it must be smashed whilst making a wish to bring good fortune. It's traditional to replace the pot at this time.
Terramundi money pots are hand thrown in Italy and hand painted in London. They stand between 17cms and 19cms in height.
Once smashed, money pots are sometimes used to house a candle or a plant. The best way to break your money pot is to get a chisel or the back of a hammer and place it inside the money slot - slowly lever the top and you should be able to pop the top off - you can now use the pot to house a plant or candle.
