21 Artifacts That Will Still Work Like New Even After A Thousand Years

In most homes there is some object that has survived almost intact over the years and has been passed down from generation to generation. It is often even possible to say that it has become part of the family. Apparently, the products of yesteryear were made to last, if not forever, at least to be used for a long time.

At the awesome.club we’re surprised to learn that there are so many functional objects that are older than even some of the team members. We did an internet search and found several examples to show here.

1. “I know, it’s just a thermos. But seriously, it was my grandfather’s in the 1950s and it still keeps the coffee hot for hours, even when it’s −20°C”

2. “My grandmother’s Norwegian steel cheese slicer. It’s a Hickory Farms, and she’s had it since she worked there in 1977″

3. “I’m 32 and my dad has been brushing his Italian locks with this brush for as long as I can remember”

4. “My egg beater from the 1930s. It is an absolute dream!”

5. “Backpack purchased in 2013. It has seen at least three continents and experienced eight years of daily use. Only the padded part has some wear so far”

6. “73 Year Old Revere Ware Copper Clad Skillet”

7. “The Airbnb I’m staying at has a June 1984 microwave”

8. “I’ve had this thing for nine and a half years, and I’m already getting close to 300,000 miles. It’s a 1982 Mercedes Benz 300 SD”

9. “I bought these Sorel winter boots 31 years ago and I still wear them regularly. As far as I can remember I have changed liners three times over the years doing a rubber repair”

10. “This backpack was mine since I was little. Thirty-two years later, it is now used by my daughter.”

11. “These leather jackets are over 20 years old. They cost between 600 and 800 dollars. The pockets are made of wool, and the one with the smaller collar has fur inside.”

12. “Mom’s Hair Dryer: She Thinks It’s From the 1950s”

13. “This 90 year old can opener works better than anything else I’ve ever owned”

14. “My Glashütte Spezimatic watch, around 45-50 years old, still runs well (albeit a bit sped up sometimes)”

15. “This down jacket was my dad’s, circa 1978. I wear it every night to get the mail. Zipper still works

16. “My grandmother’s mixer was made between 1968 and 1974. Countless family dinners, birthday cakes and wedding cakes have been made in it. I’m proud to have it now. It still hits hard”

17. “48 Year Old RCA Custom Upright Freezer. I brought it from a friend’s mother’s house, where it has been since 1974. It will now serve my family, I hope, for a few more decades.”

18. “I bought this palette knife over 30 years ago and have created countless paintings with it”

20. “I bought it in 1988 with the money my grandmother left me. My mother was upset that I had spent my inheritance on something as ephemeral as a bicycle. I’ve driven thousands of miles on it. It is now my bike for shopping, working and running errands.”

21. “Forty years of washing. My parents bought this basket in 1980 when they got married. When I was little, it also doubled as a toy boat and a turtle shell. It is in excellent condition, and I am very happy to give it more life.”
