The yellow mouse with relief details is handpainted in black, white, pink and red, and appears to be of chalk construction. Probably best now used as an ornament, the money bank does, however, come with its original stopper and therefore could continue in its original role.

This one does have a few signs of age and wear, most noticeably some nibbles to its left ear, a chip to the base, and some cracks/crazing to the paintwork. However, it feels sturdy and solid in the hand, and these signs of use add to its vintage character. It doesn't feel like they are going to deteroriate further.

The bank measures approximately 13cm (5 in.) in height, is approximately 11.5cm (4½ in.) long, and is 9cm (3½ in.) at its widest.
