Description
Striking and highly collectible 1938 Coronet coffee set designed by Walter Von Nessen for Chase Brass and Copper Co., New York. This iconic Art Deco set is a standout example of streamlined modern design, featuring a polished chrome-plated brass finish paired with contrasting bakelite and masonite elements.
The set includes a large samovar, matching tray, two sugar bowls, and two creamers, all with the signature spherical form that defines the Coronet line.
The mirrored chrome surfaces create a dramatic visual effect, reflecting the surrounding space and enhancing its sculptural presence.
This is a rare and desirable complete set that displays beautifully, whether used as a functional serving set or as a statement piece in a modern, Art Deco, or industrial-inspired interior. A true collector's item from one of the most recognized American designers of the period.
Very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. Small chip noted on the bakelite handle of the samovar and some surface abrasions to the tray. Chrome retains a strong shine with light signs of use. Please refer to the listing images for close-up photos of the item's condition.
