Up for sale is a fantastic piece of retro Americana! Vintage BASCAL Mid-Century 1950's-60's Modern Anodized Aluminum Tumbler Set with Rare "Ferris Wheel" Folding Tiered Carrier & Built-In Coasters. This is a complete, authentic Mid-Century Modern Bascal anodized aluminum drinkware set featuring a highly collectible mechanical carrier frame. Made in Italy!!
Unique Mechanical Feature:
Unlike standard flat metal beverage caddies, this rare frame features a "Ferris wheel" style pivot lift mechanism. When you lift the center handle, the frame smoothly unfolds into a dramatic two-tier display. The built-in metal coasters are on independent pivots, meaning they stay perfectly level as the frame moves so drinks won't spill!
What’s Included:
* 1 Original Bascal Wire Metal Folding Carrier with a central carrying handle. Measures approx. 20" by 8" by 4 1/2". Looks to have out of the 10 rubbers, 7 are original.
* 8 Bascal Anodized Aluminum Cups in vibrant, iconic jewel tones. (Please note: The caddy is designed to hold 6 cups at a time, so you are receiving 2 extra matching replacement cups with this listing!). Each measures approx. 4 1/2" tall by 2 3/4" wide at the mouth.
Condition:
* Excellent Vintage Condition. The folding/lifting mechanism functions smoothly and levels perfectly.
* The Bascal aluminum tumblers retain bright, vibrant colors.
* As with all authentic vintage metalware of this age, expect minor, normal signs of light surface wear, faint scratches, or tiny scuffs from gentle use over the decades. No major dents or deep corrosion.
* Please review all photos closely as they serve as the primary description of condition and color layout.
Care Note: Handwash only to preserve the vintage anodized finish. Do not place in a modern dishwasher.
