Description from the seller
Large 1950s Tin Box – San Giacomo Genoa – Horse-Drawn Carriage Decoration
The charm of old-fashioned shops captured in a striking 1950s tin box, with warm golden tones and generous dimensions.
The lid is decorated with an evocative horse-drawn carriage, depicted in a landscape with a nineteenth-century feel. The details of the illustration and the subtle shades on the surface make this a delightful decorative piece, perfect on a sideboard, bookshelf, or in a vintage-style kitchen.
Inside the lid is the inscription “Caramelle San Giacomo – Genova” (San Giacomo Candies – Genoa), a detail that adds to its appeal for collectors of vintage confectionery packaging and advertising tins.
Its rectangular shape with rounded corners and hinged lid are reminiscent of the large confectionery tins of days gone by, often kept in homes to store letters, photographs, and small keepsakes.
Dimensions: width 36 cm × depth 26 cm × height 18 cm.
It shows signs of age and use, including scratches, worn finish, and a few dents, as shown in the photographs. A well-worn patina that complements the character of the piece and its period charm.
Ideal for collectors of tin boxes, vintage advertising enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a decorative accent with plenty of personality.
Careful packaging and tracked shipping throughout Europe.
