ABOUT PRODUCTID 12375
This set of six table knives from the 1950s, produced in Sweden, exemplifies the thoughtful mid-century modern design where function merges with refined form. Each handle is crafted from bakelite in warm, marbled browns, with subtle transitions from caramel to deep brown. The semi-gloss finish accentuates the organic veining and color variation, while the ergonomically rounded shape, gently tapering toward the blade, ensures a comfortable grip. The transition between handle and blade is marked by a metal ferrule with discreet ringed detailing. The blades, likely made of stainless steel, retain a matte surface with visible patina, fine scratches, and age-related discoloration. The construction is solid, with no cracks or significant damage. The set remains in very good condition, showing natural signs of use on the blades and preserving its authentic vintage character.The form of these knives reflects the spirit of optimism and innovation that shaped 1950s utilitarian design. Bakelite was then a symbol of modernity, and the family table a stage where design entered daily rituals. The subtle sheen of the brown handles and the patina of the metal blades evoke an era focused on detail—when kitchen utensils were meant to please the eye as much as serve their purpose. The simple, organic handle lines recall gatherings of the past, when practicality and aesthetics held equal value.This set can be displayed on an open kitchen shelf or in a glass-fronted cabinet, especially within interiors inspired by mid-century modern or eclectic collector styles. It pairs well with period
