Antique Kitchen Appliances

The Victorians Loved Gadgets And Appliances


The antique kitchen appliances illustrated are examples of a nineteenth-century apple parer, bain-marie, bain-marie pan, bread grater, confectioner's tube, double boiler, Dover egg beater, ice cream freezer, jagging iron, whip churn, lemon squeezer, wooden spice box, and cake box.

Victorian cooks loved their newfangled gadgets and small kitchen appliances. Think how they would marvel at today's electrical appliances!

Nowadays, old-fashioned tools and gadgets such as these are mainly collector's items sold at antique auctions. Modern appliances for the home can easily be purchased online. Times have certainly changed.
