T-Rex Money Box

The T-Rex Money Box by Sass & Belle blends prehistoric charm with practical purpose — and turns every saving session into a small adventure. With its earthy green glaze, beige belly and irresistible smile between tiny teeth, this friendly dino quickly becomes the favourite resident of any child's or teen's bedroom.

Made from sturdy dolomite ceramic with a high-gloss glaze, the money box is significantly heavier and more stable than cheap plastic piggy banks — a real keepsake that can accompany a child for years. The coin slot on top of the head is wide enough for all common Swiss and Euro coins, from 5-cent pieces to 5-franc coins.

Measuring 10 × 12 cm, the money box claims a place of honour on a desk, shelf or bedside table. It's the perfect companion for saving towards the next Lego set, a dream toy or first holiday souvenirs — playfully fostering a sense of responsibility and an early understanding of money.
