I've just washed up a Mothercare jug and lid, which we bought in Hastings in 1972!

We use it most days, it has a small split but doesn't leak, and it's still going strong!

C'mon, you've all got something hanging around haven't you...

Until a couple of years ago I had my mum's old wooden clothes horse which would have been about sixty years old.  I still have it, in a way, because I now use the wooden struts that it was made of as supports for my flowers on the allotment.

Does OH count?   

Otherwise I inherited pyrex casseroles and pie dish from my late MIL, which were a long way off new when I first met her .... so bought probably when they settled down in the early 60s.  Still going strong.

An electric mixer that I was bought for Christmas 1982,it used to have a stand/bowl & a liquidiser attachment,but they’ve long gone.
Not in the kitchen but I’ve got a pair of clairol steam curling tongs from 1977 that still work.

A Prestige carving knife, fork and sharpener set, wedding present in 1969, plus one of their chef's knives I bought to go with it. The matching paring knife is long gone 

I also have 'vintage' bone-handled knives for any general chopping and peeling, the old knives really do seem to sharpen better than modern ones IMO.

I do have me old dears Kenwod chef which if I remember was bought in the seventies however if this is allowed, I have a first copy of Constance Spry, Rosemary Hume cookery book which is still used today, that dates back pre me 1961, it was me grandma's and I just love the recipes, many long forgotten.

we have some kitchen oldies mainly stored away including a large  willow pattern plate that would hold a good size turkey or goose that must be 80yrs old its never used these days and it was only used at Christmas time when I was a boy what  will happen to it when we no longer need it I dread to think

I have patty tins, which were my grandmothers during the war. Used for jam tarts.

My kettle, from 1989, has just sprung a leak.

I have a butterfly and flower which used to belong to my grand mother. They are cast iron I think, attached to   a stick. You dip them in hot oil, then in sweet batter and fry them. When the batter is ready it lets go from the flower or butterfly. I use it with Christmas, easter, or parties that start mid day.

A-Haaah...

Marvellous to see the precious older items here!

My late MIL promised me her carving knife and fork, which I use regularly. It's a Thomas Turner set, and still incredibly sharp. Her mother used to sharpen it on the stone step, and the handle is actually as long as the blade, which makes a superb balance for accurate carving! It must be well over a hundred years old!

That one is not actually mine, but we have one similar. Didn't want to go to the trouble of getting it out and assembling it just to take a photo!
