• From Mansion Iturbe Artisans Collection, we suggest for your decoration:

• Wabi-Sabi Style: The Vintage Green piggy bank (with whitish hues) is perfect for environments that celebrate the beauty of the natural and imperfect. Place it on reclaimed wood furniture or stone.

• Vibrant Accent: The Cobalt Blue stands out spectacularly on white shelves or in spaces with abundant natural light, breaking the monotony with a touch of artisanal luxury.

• Suggestion to create a Dynamic Duo: Combine a Medium and a Small size in different shades of green. As they are not identical, they create a visually rich composition that narrates the story of Doña Luz's manual work.

• Dimensions: (Small blue: Height 13 x 18 cm Length 07 cm Width, small vintage green: (Height 13 x 19 cm Length x 7 Width))
