Just like the title says, this is a Formica kitchen set. It was manufactured in May of 1949 and still has the original stamping and factory markings underneath. I believe the pattern is called cracked ice. It is in beautiful condition, with the exception of one chair that was sadly damaged by a nervous dog. The chrome still shines well and is presentable. The chairs are still supple and are usable with no sign of drying out. There is a leaf, but I haven't been able to locate it since a...ll my furniture has recently moved 160 miles and is now piled up in 2 rooms. So let's just say there isn't a leaf, but it will be a free bonus if I locate it. I am only selling because I need room. I have many antiques that will be coming up as I have moved from a 5 bedroom 2800 sq ft house to a 3 room 400 sq ft condo. No shipping on this item unless you REALLY want it and are ready to pay the crazy shipping fee.
