The items exhibit the clean lines and turned forms characteristic of mid-century modern design. No maker’s marks or signatures are visible. The collection is in the style of mid-20th-century teakware produced by manufacturers such as Gailstyn-Sutton or Dolphin. A white adhesive lot sticker for HCP Auctions South West is attached to the exterior of one small bowl.
