Vintage Tea tins, Coffee Cans, Biscuit tins, Cookies Jars...


Vintage and antique tea caddies and coffee or candy cans are a must. People seem to love them everywhere. They are a magnet in the vintage & antiques market places. All sorts of people love cans and everyone has a different reason for it. Mostly, I would guess, because they are beautiful, especially when they bear on their metallic skin the marks of time, when they exhibit the signs of history. The beauty of vintage is they way it turns old pieces of mass produced utensils into precious collectors items. And the more signs of use those boxes show, the better. Old is beautiful.

We have some of beautiful old tins and cans in our store right now. I love the red octogonal English tea with tribal design. It is really pretty and a little bit stained from time and dust.
