Vintage Nevco Flower Power Nesting Canisters Set of 2 British Hong Kong Metal Tins

This vintage Nevco flower power nesting canister set includes two painted metal storage tins with bright blue, red, white, and navy floral graphics.

The smaller canister fits inside the larger one for compact storage, while the bold striped pattern brings a proper bit of 1970s color to a kitchen, craft room, or retro display.

Collector's Notes

Nevco imported a wide range of colorful household and kitchen pieces, and this set carries the British Hong Kong mark associated with export goods from that period.

It suits a collector of 1970s kitchenware or someone adding strong mod color to a shelf, counter, or craft room.

The nesting design makes this two piece set practical to store when it is not on display.

The flowers are cheerful. The insides are more honest about having lived in a kitchen.
