This is a coffee pot made by a Mexican company called Vitrocrisa. Vitrocrisa opened its doors with its first manufacturing location in 1956 in Moneterrey, Mexico. The company acquired Cristales Mexicanos and in 1987 opened a new warehouse and packaging center. In 1997, Libbey Inc. acquired the 49% of Vitrocrisa and obtained full ownership in 2006.The company produced glassware like custard cups, bowls, tableware, casseroles and other kitchenware - many of which were similar to Pyrex and other companies, and some marked “Pyr-o-Rey”. They did have some sort of relationship with Corning early on, but in the 2000s Corning brought a successful lawsuit against them for infringement. Vitrocrisa claimed that the “Pyr-o-Rey” name came from “Monterrey”, the company’s location.

I am very happy to combine postage for multiple purchases - please contact me before paying for multiple items so that I can provide a revised invoice. I do not require immediate payment on Buy It Now listings. Ebay does not automatically calculate combined postage. I will do my best to save you some $$$! However, some items are just too big and fragile to be sent combined - please ask what options I can offer before bidding. Please request a combined invoice from me directly before paying, otherwise your items will be sent separately. Please do not select Local Pickup to avoid paying postage costs if you wish to combine postage with another item already purchased - this will result in cancellation of your order.
