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
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?

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.

"arcopal" then FRANCE underneath, followed by RESTAURANT in a waving
(like a flag )rectangle, with an upside down "12" near the edge.
