Vintage Child's Toy Cookware Set

This item is a miniature kitchen play set consisting of two stainless steel pans, one of which includes a lid. The set is scaled specifically for children's play, featuring small diameters of approximately 4 to 5 inches. The pans are constructed from polished stainless steel with black synthetic composite handles, likely Bakelite or a similar hard plastic, which are attached via metal rivets or pins. One pan is an open skillet, while the other is a deeper saucepan or sauteuse with a matching metal lid topped with a round black knob. The interior of the open skillet shows significant signs of use, including surface scratches, heat discoloration (bluing), and dark organic residue consistent with actual heat exposure or food play. The lid and exterior surfaces exhibit minor scuffing, fingerprints, and a dulling of the original high-shine finish. Based on the construction style and materials, these appear to be from the mid-to-late 20th century, likely the 1970s or 1980s. They represent a high-quality toy line intended to mimic functional adult cookware such as Revere Ware or Farberware. There are no maker's marks visible in the current view, but the craftsmanship is sturdy with rolled edges for safety.
