The Green Fairy Absinthe Tin Sign 40cm x 30cm (16" x 12")

Originating in Switzerland in the late 18th century, this highly alcoholic spirit was incredibly popular in Europe amongst artists and writers alike. Vincent Van Gogh, Oscar Wilde and Pablo Picasso were a few of many known to enjoy this particular tipple. It is commonly referred to in historic literature as 'La Fée Verte' (the green fairy) due to the hallucinogenic effects caused by drinking the beverage. This tin sign features the caption 'Absinthe, If You Drink The Green Fairy You Will Dance With The Devil!' pictured on a patterned blue and green background with 2 haunting, skeletal figures either side. Adorn your walls with this colourful design, but remember, you have been warned!
