Made by ALCOA for their Wear-Ever, brand in the 1940s, it features a glass percolator knob, a sturdy handle, and all the interior basket accessories to brew a delicious pot (or two!) of coffee.
Wear-Ever's roots date all the way back to Ohio in the late 1800s, the brainchild of an intrepid chemistry student/inventor who discovered a way to smelt aluminum using an inexpensive process. Teaming up with a French chemist who was also trying to experiment with a similar idea, these two tinkerers would wind up singlehandedly and successfully changing the way aluminum goods were made using their unique process. A company grew and then expanded. Research continued. Discoveries were made. As time went by ALCOA aluminum found its way into all aspects of 20th-century life. From tin foil to aeronautical components, building materials to household goods, ALCOA and the Wear-Ever brand were at the forefront of innovation, creating streamlined processes that all aluminum companies still use and rely upon today.
