My Parents Retro Kitchen Set from the 50's. Great Childhood Memories

When I saw this picture I was so excited because my parents had this same set when they got married in 1950. I was born in 1951 but we had it in our kitchen for many years. The set came in yellow too. I love coming across something that makes me smile and brings me back to our first little home. Lots of great meals and game board nights at that table. My mom had red & white check curtains to go with it, we did not have fancy things but we were happy with what we had. Just being together. Did any of you have furniture similar to this set?

Seems like this quote I found touches on how you feel about that kitchen table. "The kitchen is the heart of every home, for the most part. It evokes memories of your family history." Debi Mazar

@Ganma7 The kitchen was a social area for my family as well.

@dgobucks226 Yes it was each night we sat down to dinner. No internet, cell phones and we turned the tv off during dinner

We did too. I think our set had a more silvery top, not the red or yellow. We ate a lot of good meals at the table as well.

@Ganma7 lol not any faster than the rest of us. I think our kitchen floor was blue linoleum, all of the downstairs rooms had linoleum.

nope, I had seen this table in furniture shop, it is outdated now, most people prefers marble or glass dinning table
