Two Asian floral patterns, a small bird on a branch, a round handle finial. England, and made to last.

This cylindrical biscuit tin carries the same two alternating Asian floral designs as the octagonal version we also carry — one in blue, pink, and green; the other in yellow, orange, and blue, with a charming bird perched on a branch. Embossed on the bottom: "Container Made in England." The design is consistent with Daher's work, though the tin itself was made by The Metal Box Co. Round handle finial, rust spots on the gold metal parts and significant rust inside — for display purposes only, not recommended for food.

For the serious English tin collector or anyone building a chinoiserie display. Also available in an octagonal shape.
