melamine and Plastic

Durable design and vintage charm

Vintage melamine and plastic ware, popular from the 1940s through the 1970s, reflect mid-century design trends with their vibrant colors, playful patterns, and durable construction.

Melamine, a type of hard plastic, became a household staple for its lightweight feel and resistance to breakage, making it ideal for casual dining and outdoor use.

Today, collectors seek these retro pieces for their nostalgic charm and timeless aesthetic.
