Catherine and others have pinged me about this fabulous aqua GE steel kitchen for sale in Fenton, Michigan. It’s also on the Postwar Steel cabinet Forum. What a ginormous set – any takers? Thanks, Catherine — and to everyone who sends me ideas for posts. I really really appreciate it!

I am SO obsessed with steel kitchen cabinets. Where in the world did I get that, it is so weird. I also am fascinated with anything vintage from Sears & Roebuck and these cabinets in Minnesota are very snappy indeed.

Spotted these pink St. Charles’ on craigslist, and have invited the seller to post to the Postwar Steel cabinet Forum. These photos are pretty bad, but I wanted to show them in particular to spotlight the use of glass block as backsplash. If your architecture is amenable, how terrific! I like the look of that stove, too. In Kansas City.

A big, fabulous set of 1956 yellow GE steel kitchen cabinets just spotted and posted to the Postwar Steel Forum. Looks like there’s a color-coordinated dishwasher, cooktop, rangehood…and mention of a fridge. Drool drool drool. Be sure to take a look.
And remember, if you register and just check in daily at “Today’s New Posts” you can see…what’s new. For newer readers – the Forum is along the top nav bar, at the right!
$1000 is a great price, especially if they are in as good of condition as advertised. Be sure to let us know if you are the lucky one to snatch these up!

The discovery of vintage English Rose cabinets, covered in a recent post, was great. But get this: A company in England is actually reproducing these for sale today. John Lewis of Hungerford’s Creme de la Creme cabinets look to be authentic reproductions. An article from two years ago, says that a mid-sized kitchen redo would cost about 15,000 pounds – that’s about $30,000 in U.S. dollars today – not including shipping and any inflation that may have taken place. Here is their website.
So…if you are wealthy enough and have the desire — here’s another alternative to the new St. Charles’ coming out this month. Or – go vintage and keep your eye on the Postwar Steel Forum on upper right of the nav bar here.
