A town made of clay
As I told you here, there's a town near Santiago called Pomaire, which is very famous for its clay pottery. In the picture, taken in an handicraft shop in Pomaire, you can see a piggy bank made of clay. They're quite popular in Chile. The sad part is that you have to break it to get your money...While I was looking for some info for this post, I found this very nice chilean restaurant located in New York, called "Pomaire".

Superbe potterie.

tu ne connais pas un bon restaurant chilien à Paris ?
oh, no one will have the heart to break this cutie ..is there no hole to get the money out?
Nice wood craft!
He doesn't have one of those plastic belly buttons to extract the coins from? Oh, no!
a mi siempre me ha dado pena romper el bendito chanchito, es ke es injusto, pero como ke eso enseña a ke las cosas ke valen la pena tienen un costo.
saludos
Nope, it doesn't have a plastic belly button to open it. You HAVE to break it. So, if you become too fond with the little piggy, you'll never get your money back.
A suggestion: Don't give a name to the piggy bank! LOL...
Acostumbro comprar todos los años un chanchito de greda en Pomaire,allí van a parar los ingresos extras y las monedas,al final de año se juntas monedas para las vacaciones,sirve bastante.
