This is a nice vintage 1960s wooden biscuit barrel.
You often find these wooden storage boxes as inter-stacking storage jars - but the biscuit barrels in this series are certainly harder to find.
This little biscuit barrel is certainly vintage cottage chic - and is decorated all around with painted roosters / cockerels.
There are two lugs on each side - where the rattan handle fastens onto.
It has a lid with painted flours and a indent containly the knop.
With decorative dove tail joints at each corner.
Nice old box which is in good vintage condition - nice bright images, clean and without chips or damages.
A little loss of some canework to the right hand side of the handle - but a minor issue.
A fine decorative piece for your kitchen or vintage tea room.
Dimensions: main body of the barrel is height is 5 3/4 inches by 4 3/4 inches square.
