The paint finish on this kitchen has been lightly distressed so it looks worn before you've even started cooking! It takes a lot of skill to achieve this finish which harks back to a time when we spent more time cooking and less on decorating.

Secret cupboards hide behind the carved cockerels on the mock chimney breast and the mantelpiece and open shelves provide a focus point to display a few pretty plates or ornaments together with your favourite cookery books.
