This is my entry for #ColorChallenge: Friday Blue initiated by @kalemandra, and inspired by @dswigle as always!
For this Friday Blue, I wanted to show you guys this amazing vintage dentist's trolley I have in my shop.
It's a bonfide 1940's dentist trolley, and would have contained all the torture tools needed by the dentist.
It is in mint condition, exactly as it would have been seventy plus years ago. It has all of these super cool drawers and compartments. The top glass disc rotates completely independently of the middle section too.
I have found similar online in the UK and France, which makes sense as "Girator" is a French brand. Click the image to see their info on theirs - glad to see mine is in a similar price range!
It's just one of those special pieces that can stay in the shop forever, and never sell as far as I'm concerned, because it's just damn cool. It's priced over $4000, and I'm sure one day some crazy collector, or restaurateur will decide they just can't live without it, and snap it up.

Ohhhh yes, I love that Robin's Egg color, it's practical, the girl that does my hair has a kind of version of that as far as spinning and storage but is like rubbermaid tupperware , "Tiffany Blue" spinning practicality, an investment in the history of Dentistry
wow..its a great post..
keep it up
thank you @princessmewmew
A romantic decor of this blue color
trippy
Torture tools indeed! Moving further back, just imagine what Victorian dentistry must have been like :O
Oh god. I would rather not. Iβm fortunate to not have any fillings and havenβt really had many dentist trips in my life. So thankful ππ»
Is it some kind of magic table ? :))
Thatbis a real beautiful piece not that keen on its initial use but it could be put to good use
yes, i imagine it somewhere in a cool restaurant or even in a huge bathroom!
Ohh YesI can picture it now in a huge bathroom know that you mention it, would look so cool and be quite functional
