Description from the seller

For sale: A beautiful and fully complete 4-piece tin drink set from the Art Deco period (the 1930s), designed by the renowned designer Theo Hooft for the Gero factory in Zeist.
The set is executed in the tight, modernist geometric style that is so characteristic of the Amsterdam School and the Dutch Art Deco.
The set consists of:
• 1 tin pouring jug with a sleek, angular handle
• 2 matching tin cups
• 1 original tin presentation tray / serving tray
Marks and authenticity:
The underside of the jug bears the official, rectangular "GERO" factory stamp and the stylized designer monogram (the interwoven letters 'T' and 'H') of Theo Hooft.
Condition:
The set is in a beautiful, authentic vintage state with a few small dings and a wonderfully lived-in, matte gray patina. The set has deliberately not been polished to preserve the original antique look and value.
A unique ensemble for the connoisseur of Dutch Design and Art Deco tin!
