Vintage Brabantia '70s bread bin, "Patrice" design

This vintage bread bin made by Brabantia with flower pattern is known as 'Patrice', and is named after Dutch designer Patrice van Uden. This bread bin comes in an original vintage condition with traces of use.

Patrice van Uden's popular "Patrice" design was introduced by Brabantia in 1970. This design is recognizable by its brown and cyclamen-colored flowers on an orange background. The "flower element" was first cut out of paper and then assembled, after which a screen print was made in two colors for the "craft appearance" of the pattern. The design became one of the most popular Brabantia designs ever. It is still used in many Dutch households and several designs are still regularly offered in our webshop. 

This bread bin can simply be used as a stand-alone, but it is also suitable for wall mounting. Suspension holes are provided at the back. Very handy to keep your bread fresh and a real eye-catcher in your 'retro' kitchen.

In the seventies, it became a real hype to collect these Brabantia household items; pans, pedal bins, bread bins, coffee, tea and sugar tins etcetera ...
