Custom Ice Box Conversion

WaxingMoon · 10-20-2010, 02:44 PM

I have come across the opportunity to provide to our community this wonderful piece of Americana..... This is a Belding-Hall Ice Box, manufactured and popular at the turn of the century. Estimated production 1890 to 1910.

It is approximately 50" tall x 34" wide x 19" deep and is solid oak construction with seamless porcelein lining.

I am offering this through my website as a "highest bidder" complete customization of this ice box, which is in excellent condition and is already sealed up tight as a drum.

I intend to fully line with spanish cedar and depending on what the winning bidder would like, put in drawers, shelves, trays, anything that is desired......

This will be a fun project.... and an excellent piece for the serious cigar aficionado....

That is a very nice piece and surprisingly in very good condition considering its age.

That's a freaking beaut. When my mom passes away, I'm going to inherit and convert one of my grandmother's old pieces into my cabinet humi. I seem to remember her having an icebox, but there isn't any porcelain in it.

Looks great! I'd have to turn one side into a kegerator, but that's just me

I wish I could afford to get in on this, but the biddings a bit high for my blood...
