Title: Egyptian Casket, 1890 [Go to resource]
Description: In 1882 the British army became an army of occupation in Egypt and took control of the Suez canal. From that year until 1922, Britain controlled the administration of Eqypt. This tin, produced in 1890, reflects the influence of the British Empire on biscuit tin designs. This tin shape was used again in 1892 for Christmas Casket (Swan).
