Description:
A 'Contour' stainless steel flatware service by Denis Jackson for Rodd, Australia designed circa 1960 together with a fitted, black lacquered timber canteen. Other Notes: Jackson arrived in Australia from the UK in 1951 and designed for Wiltshire File Co. Pty Ltd. He is probably best known for designing (with Stuart Devlin) the Whiltshire 'Staysharp' knife. His 'Contour' cutlery service, for Whiltshire's 'Rodd' brand, was very popular and widely imitated. This set bears the earliest 'Rodd' marks for this design
