Superb Cappuccino Espresso Maker: Vesuviana
SOLD
Description:
A fantastic looking vintage 40's or 50's electric (for North American voltage) espresso and cappuccino maker. Beautifully machined from aluminium, the design is spectacular: compact and graceful. I have tested it, it makes a great cup of cappuccino, the frothing wand 
(ok I don't  know that it is actually called a "frothing wand" I just made that up) is better than most modern machines I have used. 
Fill the reservoir and coffee basket (making sure
to tighten everything up) and plug it in. 
In a few minutes the coffee is released into the small pot. The remaining steam pressure can then be used to froth
milk for a cappuccino. (this takes practice if you haven't done it before)  Ok so let me review:  small ,efficient, beautiful to look at.  Perfect for the apartment dwelling java hound. 

Condition:
Could use a bit more polishing, in otherwise good cosmetic condition and working.

Dimensions:
9" high x 9" (to end of coffee basket handle) x 5". 

Maker's Marks: 
Vesuviana Cappuccino, Made in Italy.
