Step back in time with us to the year 1700, where an advertisement for Wills Coffee House captures the essence of a bustling café. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air as patrons gather around their beloved cafetieres, taking a break from card games and enjoying this delightful beverage. Fast forward to 1944, where an illustration from "Hard at work, a break from cards and coffee. " showcases the importance of coffee breaks during wartime. In educational textbooks about the history of steam, we find an illustration depicting how cafetieres played a role in revolutionizing our morning rituals. Imagine stepping into Honore de Balzac's study in his home on rue Raynouard. Amongst his collection of treasures lies a photograph capturing Napoleons Coffee Set - elegant porcelain cafetieres that exude sophistication and refinement. As we delve further into history, we stumble upon Army and Navy Stores Catalogue from 1939-40. A lithograph displays various styles of cafetieres alongside other kitchen essentials - highlighting their significance even during times of war. The still life image featuring a Samovar surrounded by coffee-related items transports us to moments filled with warmth and comfort. Picture yourself sitting at your breakfast table, savoring every sip poured from your trusty cafetiere while indulging in buttered croissants or spoonfuls of cereal. For those with a sweet tooth, imagine spreading raspberry jam atop a French baguette beside your bowl and spoon – all accompanied by that essential companion: your faithful cafetiere ready to brew you another cuppa. Intriguingly captured through thermography is the mesmerizing sight of pouring coffee – showcasing not only its rich color but also its ability to invigorate our senses each day. And let's not forget about the variety offered by different types of pots and stylishly designed cafetieres that have graced countless kitchens throughout the years.
