What you have there is the base of a coffee pot. It’s missing the percolator parts and the lid. Funny but I use that same piece as a cold water pitcher in the fridge. It’s limited value since it’s not complete–probably under $20.

I was given a Red flame Descoware pitcher by my Mom. It stands around 8.5″ High. I was wondering if you think it has any value? No one seems to like it but me. I am drawn to it and have moved it from place to place over the last 10 years.

Hi Anabel– I did make an attempt at putting up some classifieds attached to this site for that purpose, but no one showed up with even a single in 4 years, so…. they’re gone. I dod suspect that the coffee pots with complete filter kits will do well in value over time.

I found a large cast iron descoware flame red coffee pot in mint condition. The coffee pot came with the inner coffee ground basin but no stem as the pot is designed to hold the basin. It is beautiful but I am not able to use it as it is missing the filter net at the bottm. Does anyone know where I may be able to find a replacement basin net?

I found a yellow bean pot in perfect condition at Salvation Army for $8. I am hooked now and I love the yellow color!!

Honestly, Robert. I am tempted to delete your post. This I know… you will often miss the rest of that set!

I just purchased an entire set with the logo on the bottom of each as on the web site…seven skillets, roaster, casserole dish, tea pot, butter melter and two other sauce pans for $40…my mother use to use these and I was tickled pink to get them!

Most pieces will have the script logo like at the top of the site, but the foundry in Belgium did make pieces that were not for export. Also, there were other foundries for making cast iron in the same area. Whatever you do… don’t bleach to get it white!
