The listing, Vintage Canape Cutters in Tin has ended.
Vintage Tin with 5 red painted assorted cutters. The different shapes are plane, star, shamrock, rooster, and heart. I think this is an unusual set because of the plane and the rooster cutter. Each cutter measures about 1 inch tall so you can use them to cut sandwich shapes or cheese.
The tin itself is red and gold. It measures about 1 1/2 inch tall by 2 1/2 inches across. The bottom is marked (see picture 2) Dixon Specialties, Inc 71 west 23rd street, New York, NY. The top of the tin says, "Cuttters for Hors d'oeuvres and garnishing.
These have been well-loved and they have a really nice patina on them. I like the red paint on each cutter and you can see some of it has rubbed off.
Shipping is $3.00 with PAYPAL accepted for your convenience. Thanks for bidding.
