Vintage crescent shaped lithograph tin with Edwardian tennis players.
€29.00
This tin was likely made in the 1970s and features a pair of young people in Edwardian tennis costumes playing on a clay court. There's a lovely gold trim to the top edge and the sides and bottom are a vivid, deep, metallic blue.
The tin originally contained peppermint drops, but could be used to store trinkets, jewellery, or any other kind of stash.
The maker is "Lackerli-Huus, Basel, Switzerland".
The container opens and closes quite easily, but it has obvious signs of wear, including spotting to the metal, and some wear to the enamel (see pics for full understanding). The piece has been cleaned to preserve existing condition.
Approximate measurements: 3 1/4" length x 1 3/8" at middle x 1/2" thick; 24.2g.
