Victorian Kitchen in Steel and Marble
Get ready to set your eyes on a unique steel and marble Victorian kitchen that blends Old World charm with fresh modern function!
You might not think of putting contemporary elements like marble and steel in an Old World Victorian kitchen, but this blend is eclectic and charming. The rich marble adds elegance to the ornate trim of the built-in shelves.

Note the ladder on the side of the blue kitchen hutch.

My mother, for example, never had stainless steel in her kitchen. She said it showed every fingerprint and water drop, so we always had a ceramic sink.

Interesting kitchen.
I’m with your Mom. I have never or will never have stainless steel for the very same reasons.
PS: How are your fish holding out in the cold weather?
I just don’t know, it all looks very elegant and i do have a stainless steel sink, but to have cabinets would be a pain to keep clean. I have white cabinets now and sometimes things sneak up on them, lol!!
I feel the stainless sink is ok but not a fan of it for the cabinet fronts. I have a Victorian home and I’m always looking for ways to incorporate new ideas yet remain faithful to the style of the era. Thank you for including all types of homes in your posts, always enjoyable to view them.
I find that lower cabinets seem to attract drips and drops and dog slobbers – so I would not want stainless steel lowers. I have enough trouble keeping my SS dishwasher, stove front, and ‘fridge door looking decent. I think a victorian kitchen could have been modernized in a much better way than this one. Just my opinion …..
I would not want to baby the marble counter tops or be constantly cleaning the stainless steel. However, I like the way the kitchen looks. Very unusual. I never thought of having stainless steel cabinets before. I wonder wjere you get them.
I love the floors and hutch!
I like stainless steel and I love certain elements of this room but together, not so much.
The Victorian is beautiful but…..cooking with gas without a vent will call for daily cleaning for marble.
