Vintage mottled enamel French lunch box - inside there are two tiers. Workers and children took their lunch with them in these boxes. Very often cooked food, such as stews etc, with a pudding or fruit in the top little bowl. Metal handle and fir clips to hold the lid in place, with internal rubber seal. Box measures 12 cm high (not including the handle) by 15 cm wide and 8 cm deep. Very good vintage condition, just a few minor age chips around the bottom edge and a little discolouration at the bottom inside.
