A classic mid-century French kitchen staple, this set of six aluminum canisters dates to the 1950s and was found in Carpentras. Each piece is topped with a fitted lid and marked with a small metal label reading staples like farine, sucre, and café, a practical system used in French kitchens to keep flour, sugar, coffee, and other essentials organized. Sylvie loves them lined up on an open shelf or countertop, where the soft aluminum finish and warm label plates add a bit of old-world order to the kitchen.
