which was surely the case for the G

Striking Old Red-Painted Spice Tins silver leaf which was surely the caseThe latest iteration reflecting my recent obsession with the color and surfaces of old painted tins, five spice containers in this terrific red. I'm not a great one for holiday decorating, but do think these would feel pretty festive this time of year filled with votives and maybe set amid some evergreen branches and these do come with their original green painted handled carrier in case that's of use. Tins measure 3 1 8" t x 2 5 8" in diameter.
