Stove Vanity

aubnwa01 — Mon, 22 Feb 2021 02:21:30 GMT

I enjoy Alison Martino's (she's the daughter of 60's crooner, Al Martino) Facebook page, Vintage Los Angeles. She posted today that she went to a tag sale at Priscilla Presley's former Beverly Hills home & this was one of the items for sale. I don't think I've ever seen an old stove turned into a bathroom vanity before:

Not for me, I don’t like it.

I guess if you like things that are out of the ordinary you would probably like this but it's not something that I would want in my home.

I'm sure the fact that it came from a house once owned by Priscilla Presley would make it valuable to someone as a unique piece of art.

Love it. I would like it in my bathroom.

My mother loved Al Martino and I still have the album she bought and listened to often as she sang along!

I love vintage and this stove/vanity is so pretty. I would love to have this piece in my home, even if I didn't use it as a vanity, I would find a use for it. Very nice!!!!!

Wonder what the folks upset at the QVC segment in someone's bathroom would say about this?

Invite people over to see a makeup demo and have some banana bread!

I like it - as part of an outdoor kitchen. Clever recycling.

Nice - but where's the actual stovetop/cooktop? Why destroy the cook elements to put in a sink.

There are so many fabulous old cooking stoves & ranges out there, new ones by companies who follow the 'old' lines of what was used many years ago. I love the looks of these but I do not like this one.

Interesting, but not for me. I don't think the sink/countertop goes with the range. Perhaps with a black stone top? Just not the white tile.

Personally, I think it's odd. Definitely not for me!

I would love it if it was what it should be...an OLD Stove not a vanity.

I don't care for the transformation at all.

It would have made a better kitchen or bar sink than bathroom vanity.

It feels like a desecration of sorts.

Typo corrected.

It's a gorgeous old stove but somehow a stove in the bathroom just doesn't compute for me.

No. I think it's awful.

I love that people are trying to reuse & repurpose things instead of just throwing things away, but...I really don’t care for this. It doesn’t appeal to me at all.

@aubnwa01

Thank you for sharing.

I also enjoy reading Alison Martino's postings on her Vintage Los Angeles Facebook page and admire her efforts to preserve the history of the area!

She must've really been into old stoves, here's some other photos of some of the items offered:
