Title: Glove Box, 1931 [Go to resource]
Description: Several tins were produced by various manufacturers which were intended to be used as a glove box after use. Huntley & Palmers themselves produced an earlier 'Glove Box' tin in 1913. This particular example imitates the features of an elaborately inlaid Islamic wooden box or, as the Christmas catalogue of 1931 describes it 'a most artistic and useful tin of Moorish design'. The geometrical patterning recalls the design of the 'Syrian' tin of 1903.
