Description from the seller

Rare Vintage Italian Coffee Maker (1964) – G.M.B. Aluminum & Ceramic with Embossed "Cottage in the Woods" Design – H 20 cm

A rare example of a combined coffee maker purchased in 1964, an iconic piece of Italian mid-century design that blends the technical functionality of aluminum with the beauty of glazed ceramic.
The Artistic Relief (Key Feature):
The most precious feature of this lot is the stunning embossed decoration on the ceramic. The carafe features a textured rendering depicting a picturesque "Cottage in the Woods", complete with trees and architectural details. This relief work is not only visual but also tactile, giving depth and a unique artisanal character to the white porcelain.
Technical Details & Markings:
Materials: Cast aluminum boiler and glossy white ceramic carafe.
Markings: G.M.B. logo etched on the base; letter "S" etched under the ceramic body.
Dimensions: Total height 20 cm; maximum width 14 cm.
Details: External copper delivery tube with protective sleeve.
Condition:
In excellent vintage condition (62 years old). Note a small chip on the rim of the lid and minor signs of aging that confirm its authenticity. The ceramic remains bright and glossy.
