Vintage Empire Electric Hot Cup Model 1088, Avocado Green, With Box.

Authentic mid-century Empire Automatic Electric Hot Cup Model 1088, produced by The Metal Ware Corporation in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. This compact electric kettle was designed to quickly heat water for instant coffee, tea, soup mixes, and simple cooking. Finished in a classic avocado green enamel body with black base and handle, this piece is a perfect example of late-1960s kitchen design. The unit features an automatic heat control system and a 6-cup capacity, making it ideal for travel, dorm rooms, campers, or vintage kitchen collectos. The kettle remains in very clean vintage condition, with light interior mineral marks typical of prior use but no dents or major cosmetic issues. The exterior enamel retains excellent color and gloss. A great addition for collectors of mid-century small appliances or vintage kitchen décor. Details.
