Oranges and lemons

Well maybe more harvest gold than lemon, but still looks good.

The Creda cooker hood and hob are original which implies that there was a Creda oven too - these are reasonably common (on on ebay right now) so the total authentic look is possible

And another one!

I dont think I have seen as many good condition kitchens on at one time as we currently have. 1970s rather than 1960s - I don't recognise the style but wonder if it was carpenter made as it looks very like my memory of a kicthen from the Ideal Home Book Of The Home.

That's a Belling Classic Double 80 cooker in there too, one that's on my "someday" list too

Very much BOL for its time

Late 1950s or more likely early 1960s, this was almost a last gasp for the old solid rings which would almost universally replaced by spiral elements in the UK until the return of those hateful solid plates from Europe in the 1980s.

Creda were unusual in that they had the grill (broiler) in the main oven cavity where usually they were placed in a separate compartment above the oven.

The Pohgenpohl Kitchen with the Orange circle tiles....

Does anyone know where those tiles were from and what the design was called? My Great Gran had those on her 'kitchen' floor (kitchen being the lounge sized dining room/sitting area situated before one entered the 'back' kitchen where the cooking and washing up was done.

I adored those tiles as a child and when her house was sold in 1997 the new owners ripped the lot up and scrapped them.

Was talk of them being Spanish but I have no real proof as nobody knew where they were from and my grans not around to ask.
 
So I"m in the local Goodwill the other day and what's sitting there on their "antiquey" counter where they put the good stuff at highly inflated prices.. A Grundig receiver and two almost shoebox size satellite speakers.. The receiver looks much like the one in the console pic (reply 21) and the speakers have the same thin wood slat grills but unfortunately one of them most of the slats are smashed. Probably from careless handling at the back of the store.. shame because I might have bought it.. They're near as rare as hens teeth around here.
 
It must be Cannon week

This would be an older model than the one above, and apparently not in as good condition.

And funny enough they are both close to me in South London although I am not currently to buy either, tempting and all as the first one in particular is
