Rachel, Bronze pig statue at Pike Place Market, Seattle, US

The bronze pig statue weighs 550 pounds, measures 42 inches tall, and stands on a concrete base near the market entrance.

The sculpture was created by Georgia Gerber and installed in 1986 to serve as the official mascot of Pike Place Market.

The statue functions as a piggy bank, collecting donations that support social services, housing, and the downtown food bank.

Visitors can locate Rachel at the corner entrance of Pike Place Market, beneath the clock and market sign.

The bronze surface of Rachel's snout remains polished due to countless people rubbing it for good fortune.
