Pretty Butler Pantry Details

When we moved into our store, we built a fabulous little kitchen- really it's a perfect butler's pantry. We used it to display food products and kitchen accessories, as well as serve prepared food from our cookbook "Romancing the Home Entertains". It would be perfect for a bar or butler's pantry and could even be adapted to a full petite kitchen by adding one of those wonderful Wolf small free standing ranges.   As we are moving, it is for sale now and I wanted to share some of it's unique features with you.



The cabinets are grayish taupe distressed finish over knotty alder with a  thick zinc countertop.

 

 

A custom pewter sink was hand fabricated and finished with a pewter relief on the front of the apron.

 Hand wrapped zinc and copper tiles were inset with a crystal and pewter jewel for contrast.

The bottom row of tile is hand cast crocodile pewter with a hand wrapped brass baton on top.

 

 

Over the sink, Laurell created a fabulous old world mirror with an antique effect.

It is designed to look like the menu board in a French cafe..I love the way it reflects the little chandelier in the center of the space.

 

We found exquisite old hardware to use on the doors. Just look at all that detail.

 

 

I adore these handles on the undercounter refrigerators.

 

 

 

We have enjoyed this little space in our store so much. I am hoping it goes to a good home.

But as I am reviewing all the details of it's design I am falling in love with it all over again.

If it doesn't sell, I will just have to figure out a spot at home for it- I'm not leaving it behind!
