Red Piggy Bank Tissue Cover With Lucky Roasted Pig Box

Why is it called a piggy bank, not a cowboy, or chick bank? The history of the piggy bank is said to originate from the Pygg bank of medieval Europe. At that time, people would use an orange clay called Pygg to make pottery jars to hold money. Later, in the 18th and 19th centuries, a craftsman received an order to make a Pygg bank. The pronunciation was the same as Pig bank, but he didn't know that Pygg was a type of clay. So he made a pig-shaped money bank. Unexpectedly, the design was cute and very popular, attracting many buyers.
