What is Toledo Steel?
Although Toledo is a well-known city, few know just how famous and important it used to be a couple of centuries ago. Today Toledo is famous for its art and Damascus gold decoration known as Damascene but before firearms were invented Toledo was the centre of the world for forging metals and more specifically sword making. The fame of the master sword smiths from Toledo lay in their unrivaled skill in tempering steel, a unique art form that no one was able to copy. Steel from Toledo has been considered the most prestigious in the world ever since the V century, mainly due to its characteristic flexibility and strength, which was later employed in fencing.

So here we have a vintage canape set with 8 3" spears. Brass and Toledo Steel are used to create a lovely piece for any hostess' table.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to age there is minor rust on the brass, but can be cleaned off easily. I leave it up to you to do so should you choose. At 50 years old it is not surprising that there is some.
