Description

1950s Chrome Percolator & Waffle Iron Lot

Offered as one lot is a handsome pair of classic American mid-century electric appliances: a Farberware Chrome Electric Percolator, Model No. 286 from Complete Set No. 236 (circa 1940s–1950s), and a Dominion Model 1315 Chrome Waffle Maker from the 1950s. Both pieces feature polished chrome bodies with Art Deco-inspired styling and black Bakelite accents, reflecting the streamlined durability of postwar American kitchen design. The Farberware percolator showcases engraved garland decoration, a black Bakelite handle and finial, and a clear glass percolator knob. It includes all original components—basket, stem, lid, and cloth-wrapped power cord—and is rated at 120 volts, 550 watts.

The Dominion Model 1315 waffle maker features curved chrome detailing, Bakelite side handles, an adjustable “Light–Darker” control knob, and cast-iron grids forming four-section deep-pocket waffles. It is rated at 660 watts for 110–120 volts A.C. only. A visually cohesive and collectible retro kitchen pairing, ideal for display, collection, or careful restoration.
