Chinese Tea Tins

Looking at these beautifully enameled tea-tins, I've often wondered what exotic blends 21 and 6 would have been. Oolong?  Lapsing Souchong?  Gong Yi?  Or perhaps they were used to smuggle opium after the Treaty of Nanking?  We love old things for the stories they could tell:  We love them even more when they're this pretty.
