My prized possession is this General Electric 1952 Calrod stove. I know the color is unusual, but since our kitchen was black, white and stainless, it fit perfectly. We found it at a great used furniture store on our way to the Pine Barrens.
The stove is amazing, double ovens, working clock and lights, warming bins and a functional rotesserie. Atop the stove is a set of anodized aluminum tumblers in a wire caddy.

I've been thinking lately how we have all this great stuff that has stood the test of time, but I don't use it very often. So, starting today, I'm dusting off the shelves and incorporating my favorite pieces into everyday life.

Now THAT is a cool stove! We have the same glasses. Why does cold water taste so much better and colder out of them?

I WANT that stove!!!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE that stove!!!!!!!!
It's just beautiful!
So completely and awesomely jealous.
We went house-hunting once, and were looking at older houses, and the realtor was apologizing for the teal double ovens in the wall, not noticing that I was SALIVATING over them.
And my friend TOTALLY blew her kitchen budget buying a brand new (but looked like vintage) huge teal refrigerator. Had to go with a cheaper floor because of that fridge, but it was totally worth it.
I'm in love with your stove and your tumblers.
I had an adorable 1952 lemon-and-red vintage stove in the house I had to leave behind in Australia. I hated losing it, but when you're moving to a new country with only two suitcases, the oven can't come too :(
