Re: [lace-chat] What is this thing?
Hi Pene Arcopal is a glass brand name; a bit like pyrex. Many years ago I had some translucent coffee cups and saucers which were made by Arcopal. From the size you give it sounds like a paperweight or a coaster.

I did wonder if it was used to stop milk boiling over, but it is completely circular, not like the ones I found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_watcher but maybe still does the same job. If it is useful for this, can I use it when making jam? Pene Brenda Paternoster wrote: Hi Pene Arcopal is a glass brand name; a bit like pyrex.

Hi All, I have some saucers I use as ashtrays. THey're from France and I believe they were used as coasters in a restaurant. Everytime someone ordered a drink it came on a coaster with a price on it. At the end of the evening the waiter would just add up the prices on the coasters for the final bill. That is my two cents G.
