VINTAGE STOVE
Kitchen Designer: Purcell Murray, Brisbane, Calif.
Rendering Courtesy Purcell Murray No question that an uber-pricey La Cornue range adds period charm to a new house. Many homeowners who love the Old World look of European models find those five-figure price tags to be completely out of reach. But vintage-look appliances are now available from domestic manufacturers like GE. The firm’s new retro-contemporary Artistry line comes in black and white with a focus on affordability for first-time homeowners who don’t want to skimp on style. Offerings include refrigerators, dishwashers, ranges, and microwaves. And if you’re a hard-core antiques maven, check out Antique Stove Heaven in Los Angeles.
