Vintage Tagus Portugal Copper Melting Pot / R.78

Tagus Portugal | Vintage Copper Melting Pot & Butter Warmer — Model R.78

A beautifully crafted piece of mid-century Portuguese kitchenware, this Tagus copper melting pot is as charming on a shelf as it is functional on a stovetop. Produced in Portugal during the 1960s–70s by the renowned Tagus copperware house, the round bulbous form is finished in a warm rose-gold copper with brass accent detailing and a tin-lined interior — the hallmark of quality European culinary craft.

The turned wooden handle stays cool to the touch, while the hinged lid keeps contents warm and contained. Stamped with the model hallmark R.78, this is a genuine original piece — not a reproduction — and arrives in very good condition consistent with its age and prior use.

Perfect as a butter warmer, chocolate melting pot, or petite fondue vessel. A wonderful addition to a farmhouse kitchen, a curated European country interior, or a collection of culinary history.
