Coffee anyone? Cory carafe

Cory carafe serving set

Estate sale find. The top of the carafe says Cory, which was a Chicago company. Carafe on a swing with creamer and sugar bowl, tray and warming votive.


Scott, oh king of carafes,did you ever see, or possibly have this set? And if you do, do you know if the cream and sugar had lids?

I've seen it indeed, Sue.  It's one of the sets at the top of my wish list, but I have yet to find it in the box (although I might make an exception on this one).  From Cory's Galaxy line, this set is not easy to find...and yes, yours is complete.  The sugar didn't have a lid.  I have the smaller version of this, without the creamer and sugar.  Excellent find!

Sue, I'd love to see a photo of this in use! You need to set up a Klatch-style tablesetting with this in it.
