In 1897 Shell was founded by the name of Shell Transport and Trading Company Ltd. The name was chosen as a tribute to the previous occupation of the family in the seashell trading business. As for the famous shell-shaped logo, familiar to people from all over the world, it is part of this seashell brand identity. The Royal Dutch Shell Group that exists today is based on a merging between Shell Transport and Trading and the Royal Dutch Petroleum Company back in 1907. Over the years, even though the logo and company’s official name have been changed a bit, the concept of the seashell, which inspired the company's original founder many years ago, is still present today.

Metal signs were traditionally used by brand companies as a high-quality and durable advertising medium, as they embody longevity and quality, and transfer these values perfectly to the advertised product. These days, metal signs are considered a popular retro-item, with their old-school themes and rusty distressed appearances, offering the ideal opportunity for stylish decoration with a retro and vintage inspired look.
