A shabby vintage B.O Garantie coffee grinder is restored to resemble the coffee grinder seen in the I Love lucy Kitchen.

The unrestored grinder seen above on the right is compared to a vintage unmarked coffee grinder that matches the one seen on I Love Lucy.

Following are the before and after photos of the restoration.

As seen in the before and after pictures the shabby metal components  are shining again and new paintwork  seals off the old surface and gives it new life.  As a final touch an ivy motif  is hand painted on the front – inspired by the original coffee grinder as seen on I Love Lucy.

On ebay this week there is a B.O. Garantie coffe grinder (CLICK HERE to see it on eBay) that could be restored to look like the coffee grinder on I Love Lucy which we looked at in a previous post The B.O. Garantie grinder is the only other one I have seen that exactly matches the shape of the coffee grinder on the I Love Lucy  show as seen below in a previous side by side comparison.

It would need to be stripped and repainted /varnished  and an ivy leaf decal painted/applied to the front to get the same look as the one on the show. See previous post for more details:
