The Manchester Colour Palette Metal Lunch Box

Manchester Gifts for Music Fans, Mancunians and Lovers of the City

Lunch, snacks, pens, art supplies, cables, Lego, the emergency biscuit stash. There are plenty of uses for a good metal lunch box.

The Manchester Colour Palette Metal Lunch Box adds six very Mancunian stories to this everyday classic, with colours inspired by the city’s music, industrial heritage, landmarks and unmistakable character.

There’s Pev Green for the tiled façade of the much-loved Peveril of the Peak, Worker Bee Gold for a city that has always grafted and Hacienda Yellow for the legendary club that helped shape Manchester’s music culture. Supernova Champagne celebrates Manchester legends Oasis and their worldwide following, while Mill Brown remembers the brick and industry on which the city was built and Chetham’s Oak takes its inspiration from the historic library.

Available in red or blue, the sturdy metal case has plenty of room for lunch and snacks for work, school or days out. I rather like these for storage too. Fill one with pencils, paints, craft supplies, small toys, keepsakes or all those bits and bobs that never seem to have a proper home.

A Manchester Gift That’s Actually Useful

If you’re searching for an unusual Manchester gift, this one works for all ages. It makes a colourful birthday or Christmas present, a leaving gift for someone moving away from Manchester, a useful gift for a student or simply a reminder of home for a Mancunian living elsewhere.

The references to Oasis and the Hacienda also give it plenty of appeal as a Manchester music gift, while the worker bee, mills, Peveril of the Peak and Chetham’s Library tell a much wider story of the city.

And unlike quite a lot of souvenirs, you can put your sandwiches in it.
