Tobacco canister
by KNOX, Archibald, Tin
In 1902, Knox designed some of the famous “Tudric” pewter series for Liberty & Co. in London. Tudric was a range of pewterware sold by the London Art Nouveau store of Liberty & Co. The Celtic name was chosen as a tribute to the Welsh ancestors of John Llewellyn, a director of Liberty. The Tudric series is very similar to the Jugendstil pewterware made in Germany.
This tobacco canister is from the Tudric series.
