Farber Brothers Krome Kraft was founded in 1915 by the brothers of the founder of Farberware (a company founded in 1900 that still manufactures innovative and functional kitchen ware). Farber Brothers produced a variety of glassware and barware pieces, including cocktail shakers, glasses, decanters and ice buckets. It was well known for its two-piece chrome, silver and brass holders with Depression glass inserts. Farber Bros. ceased its operations in the mid-1960s.
The Farber Brothers original 1915 concept for their company was to produce quality hollow-ware and brass goods to be sold at competitive prices. In 1932, the Farber Brothers Company invented their patented " clip on - clip off holder" which would hold glass or china inserts which could be easily replaced if the glass were broken, cracked or chipped. This wonderful invention set the tone for production and sales throughout the remainder of the company's existence.
Mark of the maker engraved at the bottom and: "Krome-Kraft / Farber Bros. / New York, N.Y."
