Vintage set Brabantia tins with 'Patrice' pattern

Vintage set Brabantia tins with 'Patrice' pattern. 

The popular design ‘Patrice’ was made by Patrice van Uden and introduced by Brabantia in 1970. This design is recognizable by its brown and cyclamen flowers on an orange background. The "flower element" was first designed and then composed of paper, after which a screen printing in two colors was made for the "artisanal appearance" of the pattern. The design was one of the most popular Brabantia patterns ever. 

Nice vintage set consisting of three tins with minimal traces of use.
