Original Terramundi Money Pots History

This is an ‘Etruscan Money Amphora’ – these money pots have been traditionally used in Italy for over 2000 years and their hand thrown design has remained unchanged. Examples of which can be seen in the British Museum.

Tradition:

Once the first coin is dropped the money pot must be fed until full upon which it must be smashed whilst making a wish. It is customary to replace pot and to spend money on good things.

Broken pots are sometimes used to house plants and candles.

Money pots bring good fortune. There is a fortune coin inside the pot and a separate date and desire card to insert when you begin saving. Money pots can hold up to £200 in mixed silver or £400 in gold coins.
