$45.00Teak Wood Condiment Set with Italian Glass Bottles
Well-preserved Mid-Century Modern teak wood condiment set made of genuine Teak and Italian glass. Beautiful set. The only wear to mention is the original white rubber trivets that once surrounded the stopper knobs were missing. We have replaced the rubber trivets. This set is in such good condition it appears unused.
The glass cruets are marked ‘Italy’ on the base with a flower or 4-leaf clover type impression. The wood is marked ‘Goodwood Genuine Teak Thailand’. Circa 1960’s.
The handled tray is 10″ long. The bottles with stoppers are 6.25″ tall on a 3″ wide base. Nice quality, great for retro modern style dining.

Mirro Aluminum Canister Set in Wonderful Condition 1950
Well-preserved early 1950’s Mirro aluminum canister set in light metallic pink with copper -like interior.
Stamped into the base of each is “Mirro – The Finest aluminum made in the USA”. Both color finishes are still bright and look near new. The lid knobs are made of a light hardwood, perhaps oak. The knobs show their age a bit, but are whole and sturdy. A ring of bottom-wear is found on each base. This is caused by years of surface contact and is expected.
Each is marked with a part no. and capacity. The largest is a 4 quart, next is a 3 quart, then a 2 quart, and the smallest is a 1.5 quart.
Perfect for the retro techno kitchen. Beautiful set in rare condition.

$95.00Jere style Owl Music Box Fly Me To The Moon – Large
Wonderful big-eyed fluffy feathered Jere Style Owl Music Box in patinated brass. Old sticker on base reads: “YIP Made in Hong Kong”. The sticker states the music is “Strangers in the Night”. When found the music box was not functioning. The mechanism was replaced and it is now functioning perfectly…but plays “Fly me to the Moon” instead. The owl rotates as the music plays. Turning the owl in the opposite direction will wind the music box.
Rare to find with music box working and still attached. Examples we’ve seen included the owl only, detached from the music box, and claimed to be a C. Jere design. It is not a C. Jere design, but does emulate his style.
Made in the 1960s – 1970s. In perfect repaired condition. Made of artificially patinated cut metal. Big, measures 10½” tall, 6″ at widest.

Retro Mushroom Kitchen Canister Set Plus Napkin Holder
Set of Sears and Roebuck Retro Mushroom Kitchen Canister Set and napkin holder in like-new condition. Everybody loved mushrooms in the 1970s. It’s not often that we find mushroom decor relics of the era in complete unused sets, especially in kitchen products. But this full set of four canisters, including a napkin holder, are scarce examples in pristine condition.
Marked on the base ‘Sears and Roebuck, 1978, Japan’. Are you old enough to remember those massive Sears Roebuck catalogs? They were like archaic low tech precursers to internet shopping where one could find absolutely anything. Kids would anxiously await the Fall issue to assemble their Christmas lists, moms would mail order fashion, textiles and kitchen supplies, Dads would look for the latest tools and electronics, and little boys would keep a copy under the bed to peruse the Lingerie section in privacy.
In the 1970s, U.S. manufacturing was steadily declining and we imported most of our products from Japan. These were made in Japan of white ceramic with handpainted decor and offered exclusively through Sears and Roebuck.
Large flour size canister measures 11½” tall, 7½” wide at base with a widest circumference of 25″. Others measure 9½” tall, 6″ wide base; 8″ tall, 5: wide base; and smallest measures 6½” tall on a 4″ wide base. The napkin/bill holder measures 5″ tall, 5″ wide and 2″ thick. All in like-new condition.
