Cafetière Gabet
Description
Cafetière Gabet en verre, porcelaine peinte, alliage cuivreux et faïence. En 1844, Louis Gabet invente le siphon balancier. Il sépare les deux récipients qui sont placés l'un à côté de l'autre (en céramique pour l'eau, en verre pour le café) ; l'eau est transférée dans un tube de l'un vers l'autre par effet siphon. Lorsque l'eau est transférée dans le deuxième récipient, son poids s'alourdit et déclenche un balancier qui éteint ainsi automatiquement le brûleur au bon moment.
Subject depicted
ornementation (ornement à forme végétale, guirlande, fleur, swastika)
