Pleased as Punch. . .
All the pieces are deeply embossed with bunches of plump grapes peeking out from heavily-textured leaves. This is a set certainly suitable for your next bacchanal!
This impressive punch bowl set is by International Silver. Founded in 1898 in Connecticut, the company became one of the largest producers of flatware and tableware, through its high quality, contemporary designs, and clever advertising. For example, in the late 1930s, it sponsored a radio program entitled the "Silver Theater" that featured many of the top names in Hollywood and its print ads in popular magazines of the day featured many of these same famous actresses endorsing its products. The company closed its Connecticut plant in 1981 and liquidation was completed in 1983.
