This is a charming example of a handmade ceramic money box originating from the Derek Fowler Studio.
The conical moneybox is in the form of a stylised peasant girl; it may have been inspired by folk art. The simplistic design comprises four different glaze colours on a white ceramic body. The coin slot is positioned on the reverse, about halfway down.
The base is plain, with a central hole and plastic bung. It is marked with the artist’s monogram, and bears the original black and gold sticker, which reads ‘DEREK FOWLER STUDIO LIMITED MADE IN ENGLAND’.
It has a height of approximately 14.0cm and a diameter across the base of about 9.9cm.
It has an unwrapped weight of 390g.
It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
