Search - Bella Cosa: Coffee Makers (Bella Cosa Library)

The coffee maker is not normally an item thought of as artwork, but the examples presented here should lead to reconsideration of that opinion. The machine is not merely a means to an end, but an integral part of the process and enjoyment therof. If anything, this book is a paean to human ingenuity in the improvement of the ordinary objects of daily life.
Generously illustrated with full color photographs, "Coffeemakers" presents the curious evolution from simple tin pot to extravagant copper cappucino machine. An invaluable reference and visual inspiration, this engaging little volume will appeal to collectors and coffee connoiseurs.
