Vintage Made in Japan Pig Wall Hanging – Mid-Century Ceramic Wall Decor

This charming vintage pig wall hanging is a playful mid-century decorative accent made in Japan. The piece features a fully sculpted pig head with expressive eyes, a softly blushed snout, and hand-applied shading in warm cream, tan, and peach and pale pink tones. The glossy glaze enhances the sculptural details and gives the piece a cheerful, nostalgic look.

Mounted on a square ceramic back plate, this piece was designed strictly as wall décor—there is no opening or pocket, making it a true figural wall hanging rather than a planter. A wonderful statement piece for a kitchen, farmhouse space, or eclectic vintage display.
