This Black Tin Fruit Motif Box is a charming example of traditional toleware, featuring a sophisticated black-painted finish and a functional hinged lid. The top is decorated with a vibrant, hand-painted fruit and floral motif, a classic folk-art design that provides a colorful contrast to the dark metal ground. Possessing a rich worn aged patina, this decorative storage piece measures approximately 3 1/2'' H x 5 1/4'' W x 3 1/8'' D. The box shows some wear to the paint and surface consistent with its age.
