Sellex bakelite kitchen canister set
made in Australia c. 1940s
I have posted Sellex canisters previously – but this is an entire set, which is now rare to find. It’s a transfer label, white bakelite set consisting of Flour, Tea, Sugar, Rice and Sago. The Tea label has now been lost- probably due to over-use..but you notice the Sago label is still going strong….I’m just saying.
These canisters would look great in a monochrome white modernist kitchen.
This delicious creamy-white, hard-worn bakelite canister set is for sale; $AUD95
