This 1950s cocktail cabinet is my latest thrifty find for my new country abode. Well actually I cannot take the credit for the find as Fiona from Notorious Kitsch found it on EBay for me! Fiona knew I was on the look out and she has a great eye for all things vintage and fifties. So I knew when the "a friend has sent you something you might like..." email popped into my inbox that I was onto a winning piece of vintage furniture. You have not heard anything yet.....It was £10! Yes you read that right....ten whole british pounds. Better still it was just down the road so Mr.B and I safely brought it home for no extra cost. It is amazing and such a find. It is very "50s deco" with its glossy walnut wood, ornate handle and shape. Not only is the cabinet beautiful, but the inside compartment is made of glass and mirrors...printed with mini cocktail glasses and cocktail shakers!!
So what you having?
OH MY GOD.
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible. Plus, I like the way your booze is all tucked away.
Mine's a Singapore Sling, please..
i love it.. its a gorgeous piece of furniture.. i'll be very simple and just have a vodka martini please!!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how good it looks and what a bargain it was, when I saw Buy It Now for £10 I was like whaaaaaa? Glad it's got a good home, otherwise I might have bought it at that price & I really really don't need another one!!
ReplyDeleteIt is on me! It is just a lovely piece of furniture and then with a simple tug it's PARTY time! Straws, flamingo's, ice and olives.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great deal!! I love it!
