vintage 1950s/60s Formica sideboard for sale by & in support of British Heart Foundation(ends 15 Jan, 2015 20:01:57 GMT)

Vintage, free-standing kitchen furniture & fittings always go down well on our Charity Vintage series so we thought we’d highlight this 1950s/60s Formica sideboard.

It’s a great colour – a lovely soft yellow, however it’s in need of a good clean and spruce up. This is reflective in it’s starting price which is only £39.99.

It measures 940mm high x 1580mm wide x 540mm deep and has oodles of useful storage space and work surface. It’s for sale by a British Heart Foundation* charity shop based in Bradford – which is fairly local to us. Unfortunately we just don’t have the room in our Picture House Antiques pitch at the moment or we’d be interested ourselves!

*British Heart Foundation is the nation’s heart charity. They help save lives with information, patient care and pioneering research. With your support, they’re beating heart disease for good.

We’ve featured vintage kitchenettes in our Charity Vintage section before. They’re really popular, useful and attractive – we have one in our kitchen that stores all our baking paraphernalia.

The 1960s kitchenette featured here looks to be in very good condition – they’ve posted lots of photos. It just needs a little cosmetic attention to its paintwork. It’s being sold by The Butterfly Hospice* themselves, so they get 100% of the final profit. It has a ‘buy it now’ price tag of £150 which is very reasonable.

*The Butterfly Hospice was built by the community to provide palliative care services to patients with advanced life-limiting disease, and to offer advice and support to relatives, carers and healthcare professionals involved in their care. The inpatient unit provides care free of cost to patients and their families.

yellow vintage 1950s kitchenette for sale in support of North Devon Hospice
(ends 29 Aug, 2013 15:07:40 BST)

We regularly sell vintage 1950s kitchenettes in our Picture House Antiques pitch. We have one in our kitchen where we store all our baking equipment and ingredients.

This attractive yellow version is for sale in support of North Devon Hospice*. It’s very unusual in having three sections instead of the more common double-fronted examples. One third extra storage space!

Visit the item listing where there are lots more images showing the internal drawers, compartments and condition. They’re happy to deliver within a 20 mile of Barnstaple for £20, otherwise it’s buyer to collect.

*North Devon Hospice aims to be the centre of excellence for the provision of palliative care for the people of North Devon and to be the main point of contact for health care professionals requiring support with complex problems in palliative care.
