Antique Floral Montage Tin Box in Interesting Gray Beige Greige Color, order Teal Blue Flowers, c 1920s Vintage Keepsake Box

This tin is a little different and I'm a bit captivated by it. The background color is a sort of beige gray, and the tin is decorated with a wonderful abstract floral montage with lots of teal blue. Likely dates to the 1920s or so, artwork bridges Art Nouveau and Art Deco. Never seen this one before. On the shabby side. LID DENTY, see below. Lid is hinged. About 7.25 by 4.25” by 4” tall.

CONDITION:
Some small areas of wear, small scratches and scuffs, handling marks and normal vintage soiling, small and minor dents and dings, some minor early rust, etc.
•A BIT SHABBY.
•The LID IS DENTY AND CAN BE PUSHED INWARD NOTICEABLY. (Hard to capture in photographs.) You can keep it popped out for display, but it's still a bit lumpy with some dents. Most of the photos show the lid popped out.
•NOTICEABLE GENERALIZED WEAR, with most wear on the lid, especially lid edges.
•A bit more thinning paint on back side.
•Early stage patina inside, some minor rust at order crevice.
•Darkening patina on bottom.
•Hinge well attached, moves freely.
•Open/close needs some coaxing.

The tin is empty.

No longer for food use. Any props not included.

Colors can vary across devices, so the colors and brightness should be considered an approximation.
