Description
This round ceramic money box carries a soft, sketch-style print of Stitch hugging his little green rag doll, a pink bow tied in her hair, with the words "dream big little one" lettered in gold around him. Tiny gold stars and pale crescent moons are scattered across a soft cream ground, and on the back Stitch is drawn from behind, sitting hand in hand with the same doll under a sky of stars. A thin gold-coloured band circles the body just beneath the domed top, where a slot takes the coins. The multicoloured print keeps to gentle blues, greens and blush pinks, so it feels calm rather than loud. It stands 8.2cm tall and 8.5cm across, so it sits neatly on a narrow shelf or a bedside table.
We think it belongs in a nursery, on a chest of drawers or a bookcase where the moons and stars can catch the light. The words on the front give it the feel of a keepsake, a place for first coins that can stay on the shelf for years and become part of the room's story. In a child's bedroom later on, it still fits in, as the soft palette sits easily with pale woods, white furniture and muted walls. Being ceramic, it is a piece for display and saving rather than a toy, so a high shelf suits it best.
The design is a decal print applied to smooth, glossy ceramic, with the gold-coloured band adding a neat finishing line at the top. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe it gently with a damp cloth when needed, then dry it. Ceramic can chip if knocked, so set it on a flat, steady surface. Fill it with a few coins before you wrap it, and it makes a gift that rattles with promise from the very first shake.
