Wow, I actually have the exact same tea tin (the one to the right), and I've been wondering where it came from. I found it in my grandmother's attic! I live in Sweden but my mom lived in England for a few years in the 70's, maybe she got it there? Do you happen to know where it's from? Is it rare or common?

Thanks so much for this post on my vintage tea tins... I have sold some on my etsy site but these are my personal favorites and part of my collection. Emma, I found these tea tins in Texas at an antique store but the bottom of the one on the right reads: " Made in Holland"
That is amazing that you have the same one!! Wow! very cool. Hope this helps.
