Description from the seller
An exceptional and increasingly scarce matching pair of original Vendex blue steel cash boxes, manufactured in the Netherlands around circa 1955.
Both boxes retain their original hammered blue finish, characteristic of their mid-century Dutch industrial design. Their robust construction, clean lines and authentic condition make this a distinctive set for collectors of vintage security equipment and industrial design.
It is exceptionally rare to find a matching pair of Vendex cash boxes in two large sizes, making this an especially unusual and sought-after set.
Both cash boxes retain their original fully functional locks and original keys:
* Large: 30 × 21 × 11 cm
* Small: 25 × 18 × 10 cm
3 keys total, fit and working on both boxes.
The original textured blue finish is well preserved, with only minor signs of age and use. The interiors are clean and well preserved. Please review the photo’s for the condition.
A rare opportunity to acquire an authentic matching Vendex set, combining functionality, distinctive Dutch mid-century design and strong decorative and collector appeal.
The lot will be carefully packaged and securely shipped with Track & Trace.
