Beautiful and Original Maple or Sycamore One Side and Formica Other Side Cabin Door From RMS IVERNIA of 1955 Items from
SS SALONA (ex IVERNIA, FRANCONIA, FEDOR SHALYAPIN)
75 Inches Tall
by 24 Inches Wide
Original Cunard Materials Maple or Sycamore Veneer Versus Classic Formica Price: $300.00 USD  Above, a close up of the formica pattern and the door handle on formica side. Photos and copyright Peter Knego 2008. Wonderful door with a hinge of the frame attached from RMS IVERNIA. The handle hardware is intact but the bakelite coating is shot. I have not refinished this door but the woodwork would look stunning with a bit of tung oil or varnish applied.
The other side of the door with the wood grain and another worn but intact handle. Photos and copyright Peter Knego 2008.
This is one of just a handful of cabin doors rescued from the ex IVERNIA at Alang and comes with a hinge from the frame. Like most doors from the ship, it is slightly obtuse with compensation for sheer and camber.
