That's a very skilled application of a vintage pattern called "Cracked Ice". That might be the original finish on the stove but likely not the icebox. I remember that contact paper and Formica from the Sixties had that pattern in different colors.

" Green and ivory was a popular combination on items for a short time in the mid 1930's."
Yes it was! On both sides of the pond you found green/ivory combination in home furnishings, appliances, interior decoration... So much so that when one sees that combination or even just shades of either in vintage anything almost at once go to 1930's. |
