Product Information
Full details
The Sara Miller Storage Caddy Tin in Gold is designed for anyone looking to add a decorative and functional storage solution to their home. Its primary benefit is its dual purpose: a charming decorative piece and practical storage for various small items. A potential caveat is its size, which is best suited for smaller items rather than bulk storage. This tin features a beautifully illustrated moonlit forest scene with woodland creatures, intricate gold detailing, and a domed lid, making it ideal for storing kitchen essentials like tea bags, biscuits, or small trinkets.

FAQs
What materials is the storage caddy made from?

No, this storage caddy is strictly hand wash only to preserve the design and material integrity.

Does the gold detailing chip easily?
The gold detailing is part of the decorative finish. While designed for durability, it can be susceptible to scratching if handled roughly. Gentle care is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close properly
Ensure there are no items inside the caddy preventing the lid from seating correctly. Check for any dents or warping on the lid or rim.
Discoloration on the tin's surface
This may be due to food residue or improper cleaning. Wash gently with mild soap and water, dry thoroughly. For persistent marks, consult care instructions.
Rust spots appear on the tin
Rust indicates moisture has been trapped. Gently clean the affected area with a soft cloth and a very mild abrasive like baking soda paste, then dry immediately and thoroughly. Ensure future storage of dry items and proper drying after washing.
