Don’t feel like trusting the banks lately? You can always go back to basics and do so in absolute style. The 'Pogo' concept reintroduces the good old piggy bank in a version of fine design and advanced functionality.

Conceived by Joel Escalona, Mini Pogo is a combination of a toy and a modern money-saving pig, and is available in many shiny, joyful colors that liven up the bubbly experience; Pogo senior, on the other hand, is a stool made of glossy plastic or cork and a toy nonetheless. They are both an excellent and most enjoyable way for children to learn the value of money--and for the rest of us proud adults to try and remember it. And, you never know, if the Mini Pogo grows up to be a stool, maybe its monetary contents will grow with it.
