Title: Moncrieff & Bodum Santos

What you see there is a beautiful Bodum Santos coffee maker. In my research into John Moncrieff I came across the information that they had supplied glass for Bodum in the 70's, but that was all.

Today, I confirmed with Bodum that John Moncrieff Ltd made this particular coffee makers glass components during the 1960's and 1970's. They are still being made but now in Germany. I doubt that you will find any Moncrieff markings on older pots but, they can be distinguished. :shock:

All of the Moncrieff made ones were hand made, presumably mould blown. All of the German ones are machine made. They are still in production.

The first person to find a Moncrieff one, and send in a picture for the site, gets instant fame on this board. :D

There would seem to have been a design chage and possibly more than one model...

My son and I have two of the Cona versions (one each!) which I think aren't Moncrieff?
Mine looks like this one: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?pos=-9671
