Cinnamon container c. 20th century

This 20th-century ceramic container, likely used to store cinnamon, is a charming example of utilitarian design. The simple, geometric checkerboard pattern in yellow and white adds visual interest, while the word "CINNAMON" is prominently displayed on the front, serving as a clear label. This anonymous work exemplifies the functional artistry often found in everyday objects from this era. The small scale of the container, 4 1/8 x 2 3/8 x 2 3/8 inches, suggests its intended use in a domestic setting, adding a touch of style to kitchen shelves.
