Søholm money box Poul Hartling 1975 Bikuben Bank of the Year

This money box from Søholm depicts Poul Hartling and is a characterful collector's figure from 1975, issued for Bikuben as part of the Bank of the Year series. The figure is designed as a bust and reproduces the facial features with glasses, suit and tie, which gives it a distinctive and easily recognizable expression. This makes it an exciting piece of Danish design history for collectors of money boxes, political figures and older ceramics from Søholm.

As a piggy bank and collector's item, it combines function and narrative in a way that characterizes many of the best Danish utility objects from the period. This is not merely a figure, but a piece of cultural history, where a well-known person of the time has been translated into ceramics with a lively, human touch. The sculptural form also means that it works beautifully as a decorative figure on a shelf, in a display cabinet or on a desk.

Søholm's money boxes are today of great interest among collectors, precisely because they are tied to specific years, persons and releases. This edition with Poul Hartling is therefore ideal for you who are looking for a Søholm money box from 1975, a Bikuben piggy bank or a figure with a clear historical and Danish reference. The matte, light ceramic emphasizes the figure's calm and solid appearance and fits well into both classic and more modern homes.

Older ceramics like this have a special charm because they carry history and at the same time can still create joy in the interior today. Choosing vintage and collector's objects with personality is also a beautiful way to give good craftsmanship new life. The figure can be an obvious gift for the collector, for the history enthusiast or for the person who appreciates Danish ceramics with identity and soul.
