The rack isn't vintage. <br /><br />It's too late for Etsy to 'discontinue' vintage, and last I saw any plans to separate vintage from handmade are pretty much forgotten. Etsy promotes used newer items sold as vintage in the same way they promote reseller shops selling their inventory as handmade.EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-15157325701399685652009-09-15T13:59:18.182-04:002009-09-15T13:59:18.182-04:00That's an Ikea dish rack.That's an Ikea dish rack.EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-26128147299915795602009-09-15T13:59:16.848-04:002009-09-15T13:59:16.848-04:00we use paper plates :)we use paper plates :)EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-68262085959023153492009-09-15T13:59:16.168-04:002009-09-15T13:59:16.168-04:00Maybe Etsy should discontinue all "vintage&qu...Maybe Etsy should discontinue all "vintage" items , or maybe we could just be sure before bashing the seller.<br />Hmmmm?EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-29256085543571168702009-09-15T13:59:15.341-04:002009-09-15T13:59:15.341-04:00Out of curiosity, I just searched for vintage dish...Out of curiosity, I just searched for vintage dish racks on Ebay and then Google. Found a real vintage metal rack on Ebay; seller noted a bit of rust. Don't know how old it was, but definitely Etsy-legal. But on Google you find links to sellers on Etsy with 'vintage' metal dish racks which are obviously newer than 1989. (Yes, there are more since the item in this post was featured in the Dorque!) This is the stuff I saw in the stores when I was buying the (plastic coated) one I have now...in 2000.EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-2994768094744155262009-09-15T13:59:14.076-04:002009-09-15T13:59:14.076-04:00I've never seen an old metal (wire?) dish rack...I've never seen an old metal (wire?) dish rack at an estate sale. I would guess they rusted even if they were factory painted, like many of the metal napkin holders and beverage caddies I've seen from the 50s and earlier. Aluminum wouldn't rust, but it can get crusty from hard water. I think I remember seeing metal wire dish racks in old catalogs and magazines, but there are none in any of my collector's guides showing 20th Century kitchenwares. But they don't show any of the rubber-coated or plastic ones, either.EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-10300185401496897582009-09-15T13:59:12.549-04:002009-09-15T13:59:12.549-04:00And 36 people have marked it as a favorite...And 36 people have marked it as a favorite...EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-77030490378051119402009-09-15T13:59:11.629-04:002009-09-15T13:59:11.629-04:00BeautifulGems Says:

I had some metal plate stands I used sometimes for photography, and simply standing some china in there for a few minutes I managed to nick a few rims. And I am super careful because handling some of those plates is like handling real money. Metal racks are for contemporary fully vitrified china, melamine or metal dishes. Antiques dealers use specially made wood and plastic multi-dish folding display racks for doing shows or setting up at bricks and mortar antique malls.<br /><br />A file organizer is a good alternate use for the rack in the photo, but it isn't old. I think metal racks became popular at the same time as stone countertops, sometime in the late 1990s.EtsyCallOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547812536094804375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112692398857922652.post-68308872355396124992009-09-15T13:59:02.721-04:002009-09-15T13:59:02.721-04:00haha,
