For consideration is a Vintage Stella Caffettiera Brevettata Ferrara Electric Espresso Machine. This machine is pre-1950, I believe. Tested and warms up very quickly. See picture 9, this is as far as I was able to disassemble this unit. When I shook the funnel shaped part, could hear the rattling of at least one of the two discs that make up the \"basket\" inside. Even without being able to disassemble this part, this unit displays very nicely, or could be used for parts (worst case scenario). There is some staining from coffee inside, as well as some staining on the top near the tension knob. See pics for condition as well.
