Vintage Aluminum Cookie Cutters Red Green Wood Handles Set of 6 Bridge Card Suits Christmas Tree 1940s

This set of six vintage aluminum cookie cutters with red and green painted wood handles dates to the 1940s to 1950s and includes bridge card suits, a Christmas tree, and a flower rosette.

All six are clean with handles attached and bright color, though the rosette handle is loose and some green knobs show light paint wear, as the photos show.

Aluminum cutters with painted wood handles became kitchen staples after World War II. The four bridge suits are a crimped diamond with a red knob and a club, spade, and crimped heart with green knobs, joined by a Christmas tree with a red strap handle and a scalloped rosette with a green knob, each with air holes so dough releases cleanly.
