Well, this is a first for us in the purchases department – a vintage gas cooker!

It was recently taken out of someone’s home who’d had it from new – and it was still being used. All the more remarkable as this model dates from the late 1930s! It was destined to be weighed in for scrap unless we saved it – and we just couldn’t let that be its fate.

It’s such a fabulous item. We love the design – solid and functional. It has oven, grill and hob. The top collapses down neatly when not in use to provide an additional work surface if required. And there’s a fold out plate warmer too. The entire body is covered in a warm, cream-coloured enamel. It’s very cute!

The condition is amazing considering its age and usage – it even has the original instruction card!

We found some original advertisements for this model New World gas cooker online. This example could easily go into some kind of living museum. However, as we said, it was still being used until recently, so could go straight back into a domestic setting.

It’s been lovingly cared for, for 80 years – there’s no reason why it can’t have a few more!
