This tin was designed by Escher and published in 1963 by Verblifa (NV De Veerenigde Blikfabrieken). This, with 400 gr. chocolates from Droste and Verkade filled tin, was given to her relations as a business gift on the occasion of the 75th anniversary 1888-1963. The tin consists of 20 faces, an Icosahedron. On the surfaces of the triangles there are three striped shells on a gray background. On each point there are 2 half legs of a starfish. Because the twenty-face is attached together to make a can, five points always come together, so that the starfish automatically has five got legs. The shells are pressed into the tin. On the bottom is the well-known Escher logo combined with the years of the Vereenigde Blikfabrieken. A look from this series is prominently displayed in Escher Museum, Het Paleis, 125 years of Escher until October 1, 2023.
