#1: A Vintage Stove
Cooking with heat is one of the things that makes humans stand out from the rest. We learned how to manipulate fire and never looked back. However, the way we cook has changed a lot over the years. This vintage stove from a house built in 1906 is definitely a thing of the past. Most of us probably wouldn’t even know how to turn it on!
By 1906, most upscale stovetops were powered by gas instead of coal. Believe it or not, this was actually much more lightweight than previous stoves on the market. If you look closely, you can still see all the usual trappings of a stove. From the stovetop to the oven, all the necessities are there. Our ovens just look a little different now.
