The focal point of the Seaside Community Gardens in Llanelli, the sculpture is a reminder of Llanelli's major role in the tinplate industry in the 19th and 20th centuries. Steel saucepans and other kitchen utensils were tinplated to provide a cheap supply to the British public. The song known in Welsh as Sosban Fach (Little Saucepan) is sung by supporters of the regional rugby union team The Scarlets and local team Llanelli Rugby Football Club.
