Set of Six Danish Modern Turned Rosewood Knife Rests with Box by Michael Bloch
$325.00Elegant, sculptural set of six turned rosewood knife/spoon rests designed by Michael Bloch for Ramle Art (ca. Mid-20th Century, Denmark/Danmark).
Each rest is carved with two beveled edges to allow one side to lie flat against a tabletop.
Retains the original packaging.
Very good condition with shelf wear to the box and one scuff to an underside of one of the knife rests, resulting in a spot of finish loss (this is the side that rests downward on a surface).
Elegant set boasting vivid rosewood grain and rich tone.
Each measures – H: 0.5″ x L: 2.88″ x D: x 0.63″
