Title: Rose Basket, 1962-1963 [Go to resource]
Description: This was a popular shape for Huntley & Palmers tins during the 1960s. Other examples include 'Prunus' (1964), 'Silver Rose' (1963-1964) and 'Ebb Tide' (1961-1963). Although this tin features some embossing on the lid it is a much less elaborately manufactured product than those using the same theme produced at the turn of the century. The 'Basket' tin of 1907 has more convincing colouring and features a more complex handle and latch. The 'Basket' series of tins produced between 1905 and 1907, which featured a real basket work outer case, are even more showy. This late example is very flat and uninspired in comparison with its ancestors.
