Vintage French Aluminum 6 Piece Canister Set

Vintage French Kitchenalia has become so beloved and it's certainly easy to understand why.  With simple shapes and homespun style, it reflects the honest, soul-nourishing center of the French home. 

Case in point is this charming Vintage French 6-piece Aluminum Canister Set recently found at market in Paris. Casual and uncomplicated, aluminum canister sets were a lighter weight yet durable alternative to the ceramic or even enameled metal sets of the time. Highly collectible and beloved by many, these handy canisters bring a warm, fresh enthusiasm to the modern kitchen.

This unpretentious set, with French names for the kitchen staples stamped on the front of each canister, exudes the relaxed confidence of a well-loved family kitchen and perfectly captures the spirit of home-cooking in France.

Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. In very good vintage condition with the small dents here and there that are common with vintage aluminum kitchenware.

The canisters range in size from the largest Sucre (Sugar) Canister measuring 8.5"H x 6"D, to the smallest Poivre (Pepper) Canister measuring 4.5"H x 3.5"D. The remaining canisters are Café (Coffee), Farine (Flour), Pâtes (Pasta), and Thé (Tea).
