Vintage tin for storing coffee beans - brand Koffie Hostens, Roeselaren

  • Manufacturer: Et.J.Schuybroek S.A Hoboken – Antwerp
  • Date of manufacture: 1925 - 1950

Description
This vintage tin is more than just a container for coffee beans. It is a time capsule of the history of coffee consumption in the early twentieth century. Dating from the period between 1920 and 1960, this tin is a typical example of the tins used to store and sell coffee beans at the time.

This tin is made of metal and the red-coloured background bears the brand name 'Koffies Hostens' from Roeselaren. The tin is equipped with a loose lid. The size of this tin suggests that it was intended for direct sales to customers rather than storing large quantities of coffee beans.

The decoration of the tin is simple but effective. The brand "Koffies Hostens" is clearly legible in an elegant, sans serif font. Furthermore, the tin is provided with an image of the Hostens coffee factory. The whole gives a feeling of craftsmanship and quality.

The coffee roasters had different roasting techniques and sold their own brands to local grocers and merchants of colonial wares. This tin from Koffies Hostens testifies to the pride coffee roasters had in their products.

Although this tin is now over 70 years old, it is still in good used condition. It is a perfect addition for a collector of vintage tins and a beautiful reminder of the rich history of coffee in Belgium.
