Vintage British Cabinet Shaped Cookie Tin

About the Item

A vintage metal box made for McVitie and Price, then located in Edinburgh. This biscuit tin emulates an empire-styled wooden chest. Highly collectable, it tells a story intertwined with 19th and 20th century British history and pop culture —McVitie was commissioned twice to bake royal wedding cakes and its famous biscuits have been recognisable by British people for decades— this piece can bring a touch of nostalgia to your home.
