This series of French wine cellar bin labels are one of my favourite finds of recent months... They date to c.1880 and the numbers have been beautifully hand painted onto a rectangular tin sheet with inverted corners. The muted colours, the styling of the freehand sign writing and the way that this label has aged is just sublime.

 

This number 5 remains good and legible, though there is some fairly dark discolouring / heavy staining, some surface scratches and some surface corrosion. Plenty of character with this label!

 

Wonderfully decorative pieces in their own right, I also think these would make for fantastic door numbers on a suitably styled Georgian / Victorian property.

 

The label measures 20cm wide x 12cm high. The price includes UK mainland delivery. 

 

Please note, the last photo, of the reverse is a generic image and might not be the back of this particular label - the backs are all nigh on identical so the photo is just to help give a full understanding of the piece.
