Product Information
Full details
The Purely Home Botanical Hens Biscuit Tin is designed for homeowners who value a charming, rustic aesthetic in their kitchen storage solutions. It provides a generous 2.7L capacity to keep biscuits and other dry goods fresh, effectively serving as both a functional storage container and a decorative accent piece. The main caveat is that the bamboo lid is not airtight, meaning it is better suited for short-term pantry storage rather than preserving items that need to remain crisp over long durations.

FAQs
Is the biscuit tin dishwasher safe?
No, it is recommended to hand-wash the enamel container and wipe the bamboo lid to ensure the longevity of the materials and the design.
Does the lid provide an airtight seal?
No, the bamboo lid is designed as a dust cover and does not include a silicone gasket for an airtight seal.
Can I store bread or pastries in this tin?
You can, but since the lid is not airtight, these items will likely stale faster than they would in a sealed container.
What are the exact dimensions?
The tin is 16.5cm in diameter and 19cm in height.
Is the design printed on both sides?
The botanical pattern features an all-over print consistent with the charming decorative theme of the Purely Home botanical range.
Can I use this to store liquids?
No, this tin is intended for dry goods only.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels loose or does not sit flush
Bamboo is a natural material that can shift slightly with humidity; ensure the rim is clean and free of crumbs, then rotate the lid to find its natural seat.
Enamel surface appears dull
Gently buff the exterior with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to restore shine; avoid abrasive scouring pads that can scratch the decorative botanical print.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply place the tin in a cool, dry area away from direct heat sources to prevent the bamboo from drying out. Compatibility is broad, as the tin complements a variety of kitchen color schemes, particularly those with white, blue, or earthy tones. Regarding care, the enamel body should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the bamboo lid in water, as excessive moisture can cause the wood to warp or develop mold. Regularly oiling the bamboo lid with a food-safe mineral oil can help maintain its luster and prevent cracking over time.
