Michelin Merchandise figure - Iron - 1970-1980

Michelin Bibendum Cast Iron Coin Bank—a classic vintage-style reissue featuring the iconic "Bibendum" (Michelin Man). This collectible piece boasts a substantial cast iron build and premium tactile quality.
Material: Crafted from cast iron with a net weight of 2.1kg, offering a solid, heavy feel. It features a rugged, distressed finish that evokes a vintage, weathered aesthetic; unlike mass-produced items, slight paint chips or minor imperfections are characteristic of this type of vintage collectible.
Dimensions: Approximately 22cm in total height. It features a coin slot on the back, serving as both a functional coin bank and a decorative sculpture. The base includes protective pads to prevent scratching surfaces.
Design: Features the Michelin Man waving, complete with the iconic yellow sash bearing the "MICHELIN" logo. This rotund, classic mascot exudes a strong vintage industrial vibe.
Vintage Industrial Style: Perfectly suited for American, mid-century, or garage-style decor, as well as coffee shops and studios. It makes an eye-catching addition to desktops or display cabinets—a must-have for automotive culture enthusiasts.
Dual-Purpose: Functions as a coin bank for loose change, yet serves equally well as a standalone art piece, creating a striking atmosphere when displayed.
Collectible Appeal: Michelin’s Bibendum is a legendary advertising icon with a century-long history. These vintage-style cast iron figures are unique collectibles that are rarely found on the market.
