{HISTORY}

A rarity among vintage Hall China Company offerings these days, this 1950s era individual coffee pot was part of the Wilshire pattern made for the restaurant industry.

With its lemon yellow color, 1.5 cup capacity, and its interlocking lid, this was exactly the kind of coffee service you'd order at a hotel or restaurant when a mini break was needed. Whether you were ordering room service in the early morning, enjoying a lunch date out with friends, or indulging in a late afternoon snack, poolside, after a day of shopping and sightseeing, this little charmer helped perk up the mood and the moment.

Ideal for hospitality service, it was intentionally designed to be thick-walled and stocky in order to hold heat longer and to prevent tipping over on trays and beverage carts. The interlocking lid prevented breakage, and the long, angled handle accommodated a variety of hand shapes and sizes for ease of pouring.

Nowadays, it serves equally delightful purposes and situations. Especially great for breakfast-in-bed trays, coffee breaks on the patio, and a warm-up while working at your desk, this sunny little helper will rejuvenate your spirit the whole year through, even on the coldest and grayest of winter days.
