Jos. Heinrichs electric coffee / tea pot

[travers124]

I have a Jos. Heinrichs's electric copper coffee or tea pot. It is rough coated inside with either porcelain or ceramic. It would probably safely hold 4 cups of liquid. On the bottom is stamped- Jos. Heinrichs, Paris, New York, 8 , Pat. April 23, 1907, 110 v. 400 w. It has no lid but at some time it apparently did. There are three small holes equally spaced the top opening. There is no handle but there are 2 square shaped brackets, appearing to be brass, one under the other about 2 inches apart. The two electric on the bottom are also made of brass and come out on somewhat of an angle and would not accept a standard appliance plug. I can't find any like it anywhere on the net. Does anyone have any knowledge about this item or where I might find some. Thanks!

There is not a lot of information available on the Jos. Heinrichs company. They began operation around 1897 and continued through around the 1930s.

The company made a variety of metal items that were sold through retailers and they also supplied hotels.

In order to identify the piece I would need to see a photo.

Thank you
