Authentic Rare 17 Pc Vintage Flatware Set in Green Bakelite or Catalin with Inlaid Yellow Chevrons, includes Vintage Red Wooden Flatware Case
This is a stunning set of Bakelite Flatware in a medium green color with dark yellow chevron inset. The set includes 6 dinner knives, marked Cardinal Stainless Steel, 6 four-tine dinner forks marked Stainless Steel, 4 large soup spoons marked Perma-Brite Plate, and a wide-blade serving piece (possibly cake or pie server) marked Stainless Steel.... The bakelite handles are in nice vintage condition with no cracks or chips, with some fine, faint surface scratches inherent to bakelite; one bakelite knife has a heavier scratch on the end of the handle. The stainless is in nice vintage condition with some fine, faint surface scratches to the forks and knives; heavier scratches to the stainless on the spoons, especially on the back side, and the serving piece. The set comes in a red and gold wooden flatware case from the period, lined with red felt. Although the case is not original to the bakelite set, it does fit nicely inside. There are scratches and chips to the paint on the case. The photo of the set shown in the red Fiesta container shows the beautiful combination of colors in this set (Fiesta not included). Please feel free to email me with any questions.
NOTE: This set weighs in excess of 7 lbs, and would be cheaper to ship UPS or FedEx Ground, and I will be happy to provide a quote upon request. Also, if the buyer is not interested in the case, the shipping will be much less.
