I have had this coffee percolator on display in my kitchen for the past 25 years along with a collection of coffee percolators and urns because of their beautiful designs. This Manning Bowman Coffee Percolator has an Art Deco design with a fluted pattern around the top and base of the pot. There is a clear, glass percolator cap and black wood handle. Minor scratches from use and age can be seen all around, but because of the chrome's reflective nature, the scratches are difficult to photograph. The interior is clean, stain and rust free. The coffee basket and lid, dip tube basket rod and AC cord are include. This coffee percolator is being sold for decorative purposes. If you choose to make coffee, it has been tested and works as it should. The water heats quickly and gets extremely hot. It does not have an automatic shut off. You will need to unplug the pot to stop the brewing.
You should do your research on how to make coffee using vintage coffee percolators and be prepared to experiment with brew times. It can also be used to hold cold drinks. Please heed the warnings below:
