By purchasing from me you are contributing to my local food bank in Sequim (pronounced Skwim) Washington. I give a portion of my proceeds to them each quarter. Plumb Crazy Vintage is run by treasure hunter Joan Plumb, finding vintage, antique, and delightfully unique pieces with personality. I collect because I love the thrill of the hunt—and giving special finds a second life in a new home. If it makes me smile, it made the cut. I usually ship the 1st business day after purchase.
Whimsical mid-century barware from the California coast!
Vintage Couroc of Monterey serving tray featuring their classic inlaid design: a friendly wood whale with a tall bird riding on its back under a golden moon. Made in Monterey, CA in the 1960s-70s by skilled artisans who fused natural woods and brass into a durable satin-black resin — Couroc called it “almost indestructible.”
