Verkade Biscuit Tin (1930–1935): Classic Design with Retro Charm

• Manufacturer: Verkade
• Manufacturing Date: 1930–1935

Product Description:
This biscuit tin, produced by Verkade between 1930 and 1935, embodies the typical design of that era. The yellow tin, decorated with a diamond pattern and floral motifs in red, green, and dark green, is the result of a collaboration with Cees Dekker.

Dekker, a prominent Dutch designer, was known for his innovative and aesthetically refined packaging designs. His work for Verkade emphasized not only functionality but also visual appeal, making this biscuit tin a recognizable and valuable collectable. The production took place in Zaandam, further enhancing the historical value of the item.

The tin offered for sale here is the smaller version of the regular biscuit tin and is marked on the bottom with “Verkade’s Fabrieken Zaandam.” The last photo shows the size comparison between both tins.

Dimensions:

• Height: 13.5 cm
• Diameter: 8.5 cm

Condition:
The tin is in vintage condition, with normal signs of use and wear consistent with its age. For a detailed view of the condition, the photos provided with this description are recommended.

This biscuit tin offers a fascinating glimpse into Verkade's packaging design in the early 20th century and is an interesting piece for collectors and lovers of retro design.
