Vintage 1960's Tin Cake Carrier, Bakery Decor, Kitchenalia Midcentury, Sunny

Vintage Yellow Metal Cake Carrier with Sunflower or Daisy Motif This vintage metal cake carrier captures the bright optimism of mid-century kitchen design. The lid is a cheerful yellow with a curved metal handle, paired with a cream base decorated in a bold sunflower and foliage pattern in green and golden tones. The twist-lock base design keeps the lid secure — you simply twist to lock or unlock — though it’s slightly tight and benefits from holding the base steady while turning. The handle is functional and secure. The piece is unsigned, but the construction and graphics are consistent with mid-20th-century American kitchenware from the 1960s to early 1970s, when colorful floral tins and enamel-coated metal carriers were common in home kitchens and bake shops. The interior base has been lined in a yellow checkered drawer liner, likely added later. With its bright, nostalgic color palette, this cake carrier would make a great display piece in a bakery, café, or retro-style kitchen. It can still serve as functional storage or transport for cakes and baked goods if handled gently. Size: Base diameter: 12 inches Height (without handle): 6 inches Condition: Shows mild wear from age and use, including small dents, scratches, and areas of paint loss. The locking mechanism is tight but works properly, and the handle is intact. Interior liner appears to be a later addition. Structurally sound and visually appealing overall, with authentic vintage character.
