I love to see items from another era, and this cooking range and shiny copper pots was a wonderful sight. On a very much smaller scale I can remember a Great Aunt had a cast iron oven of the same ilk….

I am sure that many well-off ‘trendies’ would love to have such a range adorning their kitchens today. They might have to come with an instruction manual though. 🙂
(And a kitchen maid to clean it every day)
Best wishes, Pete.
Right on both counts!!
Reminiscent of wealthy graziers’ country houses in times past, Sue. You can almost feel the heat emanating from it!
Haha!!😊😊
We’ve been re-viewing the ’80s TV series Victorian Kitchen Garden and Victorian Kitchen, wherein such a range is key. They are blissfully created programmes, not simply nostalgic, lots of good social and horticultural history too.
Oh, sounds good!! On box sets?
Yes. DVDs from ebay. There are 2 and 3 series sets, the third being the Victorian flower garden, which we haven’t viewed yet. Made in the days when producers made progs without histrionic intros and loud musical interruptions, and still realised their viewers were intelligent life forms.
Sounds good – I’m sick of dumbing down.,…
Also some recent un-dumbed-down TV which we just watched – James Fox and Art of the Pacific series – very much concentrating on indigenous creativity – a 65,000 year unbroken heritage in the case of Australia’s first people.

Ah, I have this in my ‘catch-up’ list! Thanks for letting me know it’s worth the watch!
They look great Sue but would be wasted on me. I’m a slow cooker lass. Got anything nice for tea? I’m a bit peckish 😃😃
Minted lamb & pea sausages in aubergine and tomato sauce, sweet potatoes and Savoy cabbage… That do?
Is there enough for two? 🙂 🙂 Just a small portion…
Just come across this comment….none left, sadly
It’s okay. I have white stilton with apricots. 🙂 🙂
Phew!
I would love a stove like that!!!
Haha…it would cost you!
I know, that;s why there isn’t one in my kitchen right now!!
Nor mine!
Ah…
😊😊
