This is a very nicely modelled piggy bank.

It has no impressed or incised marks as far as i can tell, but there is the remnants of a gold sticky address label underneath.

A finely modelled saddleback pig money box with a very informative gold label affixed to the underside - but not informative enough to provide the name of the potter. Any ideas, please?

Very frustrating because I’ve seen a few of these and I thought I’d found one with an ID but can’t find the note.

Thank you both. This pig was found in Edinburgh but I'm pretty sure it isn't a Scottish piggy.

Found a very similar one with box, which was made by Saltford Pottery, near Bristol, for the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
