*SOLD* Robin's egg blue and rich red is my favourite vintage colour combination, so my eyes lit up like nobody's business when I encountered these beauties at an estate sale this weekend.
The large round tin on the left was used to store silver polishing supplies for decades, but dates to the 1930s and was originally used as a fruit cake tin. The lettering on the front surrounds a dark haired gal, and it reads "POM Holy Day Fruit Cake." The lettering on the interior reads Harrions Brothers Limited, POM HALL, MONTREAL. This remarkable tin is 10" in diameter and stands 3 1/4" tall.
The smaller tin on the right is unmarked, stands 6" tall and 5" in diameter. It is gloriously adorned with roses, marigolds, and other blooms in dusky pinks, golds and apricot.
Price: $25 $20 for both
