Vintage 140-piece Thailand brassware flatware set with teak wood handles with its original fitted wooden suitcase-style storage chest. Circa 1960s–1970s, Vietnam War era.
Brassware flatware sets of this type were produced in Thailand and were popular souvenirs purchased by American military personnel stationed in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. They were brought back to the United States by returning servicemen.

The flatware features golden brassware utensils with dark wood handles, believed to be teak, secured with brass rivets and finished with matching brass end caps.

The original wooden suitcase-style storage chest features a hinged lid and a red-orange patterned fabric interior with fitted compartments and individual holders for the flatware and serving utensils.
