Tin Type For Sale on 1stDibs

Find the exact tin type you’re shopping for in the variety available on 1stDibs. Find modern versions now, or shop for modern creations for a more modern example of these cherished works. You’re likely to find the perfect tin type among the distinctive items we have available, which includes versions made as long ago as the 19th Century as well as those made as recently as the 21st Century. When looking for the right tin type for your space, you can search on 1stDibs by color — popular works were created in bold and neutral palettes with elements of black, brown, gray and orange. A tin type from David Sokosh, Alexander Calder, Joni Sternbach, Paul Caponigro and Ginger Geyer — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. Artworks like these of any era or style can make for thoughtful decor in any space, but a selection from our variety of those made in intaglio, photogravure and ceramic can add an especially memorable touch. A large tin type can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller tin type, measuring 4.5 high and 3.35 wide, may better suit your needs.

How Much is a Tin Type?

The price for a tin type in our collection starts at $650 and tops out at $12,900 with the average selling for $2,750.
