This is an antique Christian Hacker from an old auction catalog. I love the chimneys!
And this is mine I found in San Francisco. Swanjte Kohler told me the balcony was added so I removed it. It has been tarted up but you can see the shapes where the original design was. I sanded it and think at some point it was a pink and then pickled.
It has the original stove unit and a clean shape on the floor, a footprint where the typical Christian Hacker cupboard once was.

The doors and windows are covered in a chalky white paint.

This is a picture of the classic Christian Hacker cupboard holding beautiful treen dishes. Look at the typical marbled wall paper.

This is Susan Hale's Christian Hacker Kitchen with the marbled wallpaper and her wonderful collection of Treen ware! I had the kitchen and dining room reversed . I now have the kitchen on the other side.
