37 PIECE ORIGINAL WOOD FRIGAST/GENSE PANTRY BOX with a service for 6 in a matte finish. VERY RARE HARD TO FIND THESE ANYMORE, UNLESS AT HIGH END AUCTIONS. I believe the whole set is matte, but I could be wrong. FRIGAST PANTRY, designed by Henning Seidelin for the Danish firm Frigast, is often called sailors cutlery because it was designed to hang up while at sea. Gense, a Swedish firm, has revived the design. This box hung in my mothers kitchen since I was a child in the 1970s and was our daily flatware, so this was very well used and loved for many years. The box and flatware does show some signs of wear, but still has a ton of life left in it and only one salad fork that is badly scratched.

The plastic door is intact and fully functional, but I think someone tried to clean it with something harsh, as it's a bit cloudy in places. See pictures for full details.

This set includes the wooden box meant to be hung on the wall and the following flatware items that hang in it on the 5 metal pegs. 6 Solid French Dinner Knives (8 1/8 long).

6 Dinner Forks (7 1/5 long). 6 Salad Forks (6 1/5 long). 6 Soup Spoons (7 1/5 long). 6 Teaspoons (6 1/5 long). All are backstamped with either Gense or Frigast. More details on individual pieces below. Knives all Frigast, 2 engraved on handle, 4 etched on blade, one knife slightly bent. Dinner Forks 3 Frigast and 3 Gense, all engraved on handle. Salad Forks 3 Frigast and 3 Gense, all engraved on handle, two forks slightly bent, one end is scratched up see pic for more details, looks like it got stuck in the garbage disposal.

Soup Spoons 5 Frigast and 1 Gense, all engraved on handle. Teaspoons 3 Frigast and 1 Gense, all engraved on handle.

I do have several Gense / Frigast Pantry leftover individual pieces of this flatware that I will be listing separately Please let me know if you are looking for anything in particular, my mother collected this pattern for many years. I respond VERY quickly to questions. Please ask any questions you have before purchasing this item.
