Some time ago I was watching a piece on ebay that was very similar to this one. I went back and forth on buying it. For some reason I was really attracted to the photos. In the end I didn’t buy it. I didn’t need it, and I thought, from experience, that it would be difficult to eventually resell.
A few weeks ago I came across this set at Around the Block. I was taken by the colour and gravitated to it right away. While I still don’t need it, and I probably won’t be able to resell it eventually, I decided to buy it. It wasn’t super expensive, it looks gorgeous and I can always gift it to someone.
The colour is very rich and the camera (a/k/a the photographer – me) doesn’t really do it justice. This photo doesn’t show the richness of the red. I took the close-up to give a better sense. Still there is alot of ‘brown’ in the shade and I am sure that there is an appropriate name for this tint – cognac? Maybe too brown. 
There is a label that says “Made in Czechoslovakia” but other than that, I likely will never know much about this pretty set.
