In an age when morning rituals were steeped in ceremony, the Caffeta Coffee Maker brought elegance and efficiency to Edwardian households. This 1910 advertisement, published in The Graphic, features a stylish domestic scene in which a woman awaits her perfectly brewed coffee from the latest tabletop innovation — a polished, gently curving contraption with charm and functionality alike.

The Caffeta (Patent No. 9621) promised perfection with less trouble or expense than anything known before. “It whistles when your coffee is ready” reads the proud declaration — a charming blend of modern convenience and sensory appeal. The coffee maker was plated or copper-finished, offered in 4, 6, and 8-cup sizes, and sold at leading retailers such as Harrods, Selfridges, Mappin & Webb, and the Army & Navy Stores. Measuring approx. 5 x 3⅜ inches, the advert offers rich detail for lovers of domestic history and vintage design.

A beautiful piece of Edwardian kitchen advertising, this item speaks to the evolving relationship between technology and tableware. In decent vintage condition, it’s a fine addition for collectors of early 20th-century household goods, coffee culture ephemera, or mechanical innovations for the modern home.
