This company or small firm made a very small match of rare art deco metalwares sometime pre-war. By 1939 Merle Faber was designing model scale toy trains in San Mateo , California. Finding either the trains or the metalwares is quite nearly impossible. The dinner sets in extreme art deco design rival that of the Paris french makers . Construction was quadruple silver plated brass or copper , but appears to be copper due to the slight bendablity of the metal. This creme and sugar is in good condition except for the fact that the sugar is dented on the bottom, it can be pressed back into shape using a proper technique. The LID is missing on the sugar as well, if the lid was present the value would be even more than what is asking, despite this omission, the set still looks great and is still very excessively rare. Merle Faber art deco ware is much better made and looks dapper than the mass producers of the time of Manning Bowman , Chase and Farberware. Many pieces of this set reside in various decorative arts museums in the USA and abroad. Price: $575.00 USD
