Vintage 1960s Cheese & Cocktail Set – MCM Barware with Box


$ 48.50

This 1966 Cheese & Cocktail Set is a charming piece of mid-20th-century vintage
entertaining ware, a gift set from the era when companies often produced boxed hostess gifts accompanied by specialty food items for home entertaining (think Figi's or Hickory Farms). This one was produced by Houston Foods, a Chicago-based international gift-food company. These sets were popular in the 1960s for cocktail parties, appetizers, and charcuterie-style serving, reflecting the era's love for sophisticated yet practical barware and snack hosting. The board provides a sturdy, attractive surface for arranging cheeses, crackers, olives, or cocktail garnishes, while the specialized knives make slicing and serving easy and stylish. A 12" square wooden serving board (probably walnut or similar) with an inlaid ceramic tile sporting 60s-era cool graphics and a set of 4 elegant cheese/cocktail utensils. There are magnets to hold these in place even when hung by it's handy chain. The set comes in its original box with a vintage illustration that gives it that distinct 1960s aesthetic. For your retro bar vibe, your favorite mixologist or just because it's cool!
