Iconic Louis Sherry tins gorgeously showcasing masterpieces of art housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art - Vincent Van Gogh’s Wheat Field with Cypresses, imagery from the Unicorn Tapestries dating from the Middle Ages, and Claude Monet’s Water Lilies.

The tins hold two chocolate truffles, Sicilian Orange and Sea Salt Caramel.

Louis Sherry founded the legendary Louis Sherry confectionary company in 1881 in New York, selling his memorable chocolate ganache-filled truffles in exquisite tins. Still cast from the original molds and assembled by hand, the luxe tins are gifts themselves. The recipe for making the chocolate ganache filling dates to the 1890s and has remained unchanged.

The chocolate tin measures 3.75”L x 2.5”W x 1.25”H.

“While I know of two chocolate bar and baking chocolate manufacturers that have been around longer in the U.S. than Louis Sherry, I believe that we are the oldest boxed chocolate brand. According to the Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets, Louis Sherry introduced the concept of chocolates as a luxury gift. In the early days of the Industrial Revolution when chocolate was first made in mass production, the quality suffered greatly, with other manufacturers using cheap Forastero cacoa beans and substituting vegetable fats for cocoa butter. Louis Sherry then, as today, only used ingredients of the highest quality and won the patronage of such people as J.P. Morgan and the Vanderbilt family. Louis Sherry’s dedication to quality endures today. Every single truffle we craft is entirely hand made.” -Tim Tippin, President, to Rebellious Magazine.
