Vintage Plastic, Bakelite Flatware Cutlery Knives
|
 |
In 1946 Sol, Paul and Leo Globus, together with their brother in-lawHarry Hill, created the Glo-Hill Corporation in Montreal. The Globusbrothers began their business in Montreal as cutlers and manufacturedbeautiful carving sets and cutlery. As the business grew Glo-Hill begandiversifying their product line and began offering chrome hollowwarepieces used in home entertaining.
The Glo-Hill factory imported materials from factories located along theEastern Seaboard (USA); Such as: Bakelite and many glass componentsthat were being manufactured in expert glass manufactures like McKee,Glasbake and Jeannette Glass. What sets Glo-Hill apart from others was their exquisite designs. Their exquisite designs can still be seen today.
Glo-Hill was available to all Canadians through many local department stores andit wasn’t unusual to see Glo-Hill products in high-end stores. The Glo-Hill Company began to lose its popular edge by the 1970's howeverthe spirit of Glo-Hill lives on in the hearts of those who collect theexquisite pieces.
Fantasteak:
The color of the Bakelite used in the Fantasteak line was similar to a deepcaramel or butterscotch. The color was mixed to appear to have almost awood grain texture, like teak. Many of the pieces that were availablein the red color were also sold to Canadians in this luscious color. These vintage Bakelite steak knives look like they have had very little usage(if any at all). The original vintage box that houses these Bakelitesteak knives is in good vintage condition.
