Vintage Kahlúa Royale Liqueur Octagonal Tin Canister Liquor England Metal 1990's

Description

Up for sale is this unusual octagonal Kahlua Royale Liqueur Tin
Kahlua Royale was a coffee liqueur blend made in the early 1990's that is no longer sold. This tin is an original from that time frame.
The tin is octagonally shaped and has an unusual 'ribbon' embossed around the tin with a 'wax seal' on the top. It has textural lines making it look just like real grosgrain ribbon. The sides of the tin display 4 embossed Mexican motifs.
The black, cream and red tin was made in England and is in good condition, but there are some rust spots all over it. The lid is hinged and is a little bent. The inside is immaculate. I have only removed surface dust, the patina remains. The tin does not include a bottle empty or otherwise.
It measures 10" tall, 5.5" wide and 4" deep.
Please check out all of the photos as they are part of the description, and be sure to use the zoom when available.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Thanks for looking!

~ Most of my items come from my mother's estate
or, in some cases, my in-law's, as well as things that my husband & I have collected over the past 40 years and things our daughter has out grown. Unfortunately, my house is over-flowing and it is time to clean it out! I am determined not to dump all of
MY
stuff in my daughter's lap! I am trying hard to downsize. It is a daunting task, but it has to be done!
~ ALL ITEMS ARE AS IS!
I am definitely not an expert on anything I sell, but I do spend a lot of time researching all of my items prior to listing. I try very hard to price my items fairly without giving them away.
~ I describe all items I sell very honestly and completely
.
I note any and all imperfections, flaws, chips, scratches, etc. I include photos of any issues whenever possible. Photos are an important part of the description so be sure to look at them carefully.
~ I pack all items I sell very carefully
with tissue, newsprint, bubble wrap and/or Styrofoam wrap as well as packing peanuts. For very fragile items, I use oversize boxes and/or double boxes so that the item is very well padded. I want you to receive the item in the same condition as when it left my home.
~ With the exception of glassware,
I generally do not clean or polish the items I sell
.
I prefer to leave that decision up to the buyer, as I am aware that patina can be part of an item's value. The buyer should be aware however, that my mother smoked as did my husband and I. We now maintain a smoke free home.
~ As a responsible steward of this amazing planet,
I try to reuse boxes & packing materials
whenever possible.
~ Payment is through PayPal.
I expect
payment within 2 business days
after the end of an auction or Fixed-Price sale.
~ I usually ship the next business day after receiving cleared payment
, but I don't want to make promises that I may not be able to keep, so I put 2 business days in the posting. (If cleared payment is received by 10 a.m. eastern time, I will often ship the same day)

I will combine shipments
