retro kitchens units...where to buy ??
right !, in my kitchen I have the original 1950's kitchen units with the sliding doors on them..in that baby blue colour..I also have the original patterned worktop that came with them..I am sure the older posters on here will know what I am on about...
but what I want to know is where can I buy the wall cabinets to match said units...you know the ones I mean..they are white and have the glass sliding doors on them thats slightly bevelled... the units are in perfect nick and I dont want to rip them out for a new modern kitchen as the original kitchen is better in my opinion.. I have been trying to track 1 or 2 of these wall cabinets down locally but to no joy...can anyone tell me where I could get one from or if someones looking to sell then even better...   thanks |

Re: retro kitchens units...where to buy ??
have you tried visiting an antique shop or and see if they have any contacts as they often visit homes of people who may still have original kitchens

Re: retro kitchens units...where to buy ??
We threw teh ones that were in our kitchen when we moved in.
You could try bygone times at eccleston, or Botany Bay. There is also a vintage furniture place in haslingden, you can see it from the bypass as you go past before you reach carrs, You get to it from teh end of Grane rd. |

Re: retro kitchens units...where to buy ??
Why not find a local joiner and ask him to make some for you? That way you can get exactly what you want.
