Small vintage Russian tin tea caddy
Small 1970’s Russian tea caddy tin for Krasnodar Extra tea. In lovely condition. Measures approximately 10cm x 7cm x 7cm.
For a bargain price you can own a charming little piece of social history. The Krasnodar region in Southern Russian is home to the northernmost tea production in the world. The tea bushes there build strength over the cold snowy winters to produce aromatic and flavoursome tea leaves which are harvested between May and September.
This vintage tin dating from the 1970's is in great condition, retaining most of its orange and gold geometric floral decoration. The inside is clean and has no rust, making it perfect to be used to store tea or whatever you wish,
