A lovely complete set of 6 French vintage stackable nesting kitchen aluminum canisters (kitchen storage bins) with distressed floral stenciled surface. They date back to the 1930s and each are labeled in French by the intended contents:
Farine = Flour
Sucre = Sugar
Café = Coffee
Poivre = Pepper
Thé = Tea
Épices = Spices
They would be great to store all your crafting and sewing supplies in and they would of course look fantastic in any industrial or vintage kitchen.
--- Condition ---
In lovely vintage condition with areas of wear & tear due to their age. They all have some minor surface scratches, bumps, oxidation and the stenciled labels are faded so you can only see the silhouette of the canister labels for farine, thé and épices as shown in the photos. There are no visible holes in the canisters. I call it the distressed look which I think adds to the charm and character of each piece. They have been cleaned (rust free) and shined to enhance their charm and beauty. Please take a look at the photos closely and use zoom for detail.
