Title: Workbasket, 1956 [Go to resource]
Description: This striking design by William Mundy is a radical variation of another 'Workbasket' tin by him produced between 1954 and 1956 (and which was used again between 1959 and 1962, and again in 1975). The 'Workbasket' tin of 1954-1956 uses bright coloured flowers against a black background. Here the colours are lighter and the flowers more profuse. Again, though, the effect is one of richness, as if decorated with jewels rather than flowers. Another, slightly different version of this tin was produced in the same year (using red, pink and blue flowers against a gold background).
