Café Culture

Café culture is an integral part of French life as is a good strong cup of coffee.  As a lover of 'the bean' I really enjoy all the paraphernalia that goes into making France's beverage of choice and here are a few 'trucs' I have for sale in my Etsy shop at the moment that add a certain vintage twist to the proceedings:-

If you love Art Deco here is a vintage Peugeot Frères Coffee Grinder with Bakelite top

and a stylish coffee filter and hot water jug combo with Bakelite handles

Or for shabby chic interior this enamelled coffee jug and filter is just the thing

If you're more 'country chic' how about this cupcake pink Melitta coffee filter?

And for the sophisticate this Limoges porcelain demitasse epitomises 1930s style 

But these little retro espresso cups from the 1970s are not for sale.  They wait safely in storage until the opening of my future coffee shop/brocante... well it's good to have a dream isn't it? (maybe next year!)
