Circa early to mid-20th Century Matfer France Chocolate Molds with Vintage Fluted Cookie Cutter Set - Decorative Basket Forms This unique lot features a collection of vintage French confectionery tools, combining three decorative basket-form chocolate molds by Matfer, France, with an additional complete set of fluted circular cookie cutters in their original metal box. A rare and charming ensemble that captures the craftsmanship of professional patisserie and baking traditions. Manufactured in France by Matfer in the early to mid-20th century, the chocolate molds are crafted from tinned metal with intricately detailed woven textures and rope-like edges, imitating traditional wicker baskets. The cutters are similarly fashioned from metal with fluted edges, nested perfectly within a cylindrical container. The largest chocolate mold measures 12.5 cm (4.9 in) in height, 16 cm (6.3 in) in width, and 14 cm (5.5 in) in depth, while the smallest measures 13 cm (5.1 in) in length, 8 cm (3.1 in) in width, and 4.6 cm (1.8 in) in height. The cookie cutter box measures 11 cm (4.3 in) in diameter and 5 cm (2 in) in height. One chocolate mold is stamped "Matfer France" and numbered "100," verifying its authenticity. While time has left visible rust, wear, and missing closure hardware on the molds, their aged patina only enhances their nostalgic charm. One mold no longer closes. The cookie cutters remain fully stackable and well-preserved. An evocative collectible set for lovers of culinary history, vintage kitchen decor, or professional pastry memorabilia.
