iceboxes
Antique cold storage
Iceboxes is the plural of icebox, an insulated cabinet cooled by blocks of ice—the standard method of food preservation before electric refrigeration.
The term persists as an old-fashioned or regional synonym for refrigerator: Put the milk back in the icebox.
A place described as an icebox is uncomfortably cold: This office is an icebox.
