Haha! Cool! What happened to that place? And the cabinet?

 

[BinkieBaumont]

"I Purchased the cabinet at De JA Vu, in Shenton Park ( I think they are still there) in 1982, In 1988 I sold the Cocktail Cabinet, as the building was going to be demolished, and I needed a deposit to purchase a property, I did find another one, around 1992, the one I currently have, in the "Sunday Times Classifieds," it was at a house in Swanbourne , in the garage under a dirty blanket, and coat me $250.00!!!, ", I have been carrying the lounge suite around with me for most of my adult life, originally found in a junk shop in Wellington Street, in 1981, originally covered in Turquoise Vinyl here it is photographed in white linen (BIG MISTAKE)

"Advertised on the weekend in the local Classifieds, this Cocktail cabinet, was made in South Africa, a bit kitsch for the house but may look splendid poolside?"

"My Parents had something very similar, it was a Radiogram, with a Cocktail cabinet in the centre and a Radio at one end and a turntable at the other end, so lucky yours still has the orginal Cocktail Sticks!"

I just saw this on ebay, looks 50's to me. The cocktail cabinet has a built in fridge, how remarkably civilized. Walking all the way to the kitchen fridge can be so tiring!

Oh, the pictures are tiny, here's the link to the auction

It looks late 50's / early 6o' it looks nice with the fridge hidden away, & I like the story about it being a prize on Pic a Box radio quiz show

So many gorgeous cabinets! I've been after one for ages....

We won this art deco drinks cabinet at an auction at the weekend - it may need a little TLC when it arrives - so far I only have this photo from the auctioneer:

OMG!!!!! :love:
Where did you get that one? (for 30 euros.. so CHEAP!)

It was on our dutch craigslist. The discription read something like "weird looking cd-cabinet also suitable for storing bottles". I knew better.....

By the way, does anyone know where to get some nice looking sticks/pins? I am missing 2½ of them...

lol Well that explains the "reasonable" price.

As for the cocktail stir sticks, have you tried Ebay?

Amateurs!
Good for you!!! You've had a great hunt!

excellent pick up. Try ebay for the olive sticks... maybe they're labeled as weird looking clothes pins...
