THE RETRO, VINTAGE KITCHEN THAT’S A DESIGN CLASSIC
The inspiration for our Crème de la Crème traditional kitchen came from the famous English Rose kitchen units often found in 1950s kitchens.
Developed by CSA Industries, a company that made nose cones for Spitfire aeroplanes, the original retro kitchen cabinets were built from stockpiles of high grade aluminium, like aircraft.
As a child of the era, John Lewis and his family were loaned a beautiful seaside holiday house, complete with a brand new 1950s kitchen from English Rose. Ever since that time, he wanted to create his own take on this style of retro kitchen cabinets and put together the expertise, materials and equipment to make it possible. Crème de la Crème vintage kitchens can only be made in limited numbers and therefore each one is a true classic.
