Vtg Dorothy Thorpe Roly-Poly Sterling Silver Band Overlay Clear Glass Creamer

About the Item

This is a nice, classic mid century style Dorothy Thorpe Roly-Poly creamer with a sterling silver overlay band around the top of a clear glass bulbous mini pitcher which has an applied glass handle. The creamer is in good condition, I have not polished the silver band but since it is sterling, it should polish easily. (I realize some people don't like to change the aged appeal of vintage items so I have left it tarnished.). I have a matching sugar bowl which has some loss to the silver overlay, but I will include it with the creamer at no additional charge, I have included photos of the sugar bowl. I also have other Dorothy Thorpe Roly-Poly pieces in separate listings with free shipping on them all.

MCM 1 Dorothy Thorpe Serving Bowl & 3 Nasco Ceruse Wood & Chrome Nesting Trays
By Dorothy Thorpe
Located in Topeka, KS
Wonderful Mid-20th Century MCM (Mid Century Modern) serving set including a Dorothy Thorpe serving bowl with original label & 3 “Masterpiece in Wood” black ceruse wood nesting trays with chrome corners by Nasco, Made in Japan. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, no chips, cracks, chiggers, in the bowl. The trays do so some wear including scratches & water rings. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Mid-20th Century. Well, well, well… what have we here?? We call this… serve-ware EXTRAORDINAIRE!!!! This is a lovely vintage set including a marvelous Dorothy Thorpe serving bowl with her signature silver band and original label plus three “Masterpiece in Wood” black ceruse wood nesting trays with rounded chrome corners labeled with their gold crest logo on the bottom… by Nasco, made in Japan. The silver band surrounding the bowl bears a bit of wonderful, vintage patina which we chose to leave alone as we LOVE the appearance & stories it could tell… but it could be polished if you prefer that look. The name Dorothy Thorpe is simply mid-century modern and Hollywood Regency glamour at its finest and this incredible glass serving bowl represents her iconic style while these marvelous Nasco nesting trays compliment it’s exemplary existence. The silver band on the glass bowl simply explodes as it sits beside the trays & those marvelous chrome corners… it’s quite a STUNNING set up!!! The trays would be an exceptional way to present snacks or beverages to your guests, or a table or bar hosting a lovely set of vintage glasses...
