Artisan French Press

Does anyone know where I can get one of those new Artisan French Presses please? They are hand made and have no pouring spout at all, just sharp edges. The kit comes complete with small shards of glass. I think they are produced somewhere near Kettering from fairly standard kit by individuals with years of experience in the crafting of unusual objects using only dishwashers and tea-towels as tools, but the exact whereabouts is a mystery. :lol:

CakeBoy,whilst the supplier is only too happy to supply these, he is very interested in a line called 'Cement Boots'. Apparently these are very big around the A34 bridges at Oxford!

I also hear that he is itching to modify a Sylvia :twisted:
