Description
This set of two tinplate storage tins is made to look like a pair of cheerful Korean sauce cans, each printed with the Flaming Fox Sauces design. The larger tin is a deep berry red and reads Korean Hot Sauce, while the smaller tin is a rich bottle green and reads Korean Bibimbap Sauce. Both carry the same pink fox face set in a golden sunburst, framed by little red lanterns, tiny gold stars and a curling Flaming Fox banner, with Korean script across the top band and a bright pink diamond border around the base. The larger tin is about 11cm across and 13cm tall, and the smaller one is about 10cm across and 12cm tall, so the pair stand neatly side by side.
Open at the top with no lid to fuss over, they make easy everyday homes for the bits that otherwise wander off: pens and pencils on a desk, paintbrushes in a studio, crochet hooks and knitting needles in a craft corner, or makeup brushes on a dressing table. On an open kitchen shelf they can gather wooden spoons and whisks and add a burst of colour while they do it. Because the two tins differ in height, they work well together as a little stepped display, and the cheerful labels bring a playful, retro touch to a plain room.
Each tin is made from tinplate, printed all the way round on the outside, with a warm golden metal finish inside. To keep the print bright, dust with a soft dry cloth or wipe with a slightly damp one and dry straight away, keeping them out of standing water. They make a cheerful gift, especially filled with new pencils or brushes so they are ready to use the moment they are unwrapped.
