PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Mustard Pots or Vessels for Table Use.
I, GUILIO CARMELO NOBILE, of The Monico, Shaftesbury Avenue, in the City
and County of London Manager of Restaurant, do hereby declare the nature of
this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in mustard pots or vessels for table use
having for object to enable the consumer to mix the mustard as he requires it,
thereby ensuring to the consumer the full flavor and strength of the condiment in
a sightly condition, avoiding the unsightly and unappetizing appearance of a
mustard pot from which mustard has been previously taken.
I attain my object by providing the pot or vessel with one compartment or
chamber for containing water and another for containing mustard in a dry state,
separating these compartments or chambers by a diaphragm or diaphragms, having
an orifice or orifices, which may be opened to cause the contents of the one chamber
to pass into the other and be closed at pleasure.
may provide the pot or vessel with a clockwork arrangement which will
automatically cause the rotation of a mixer directly the mustard and the water are
passed into the same chamber, or I may effect this by turning a handle, or
otherwise.
The mustard spoon or spoons will be of such shape as I may find most suitable
for the shape of pot or vessel, which may be of any shape and in glass, metal or
other material, and in sections or fitted together as to be readily taken apart for
cleaning and put together for use.

Improvements in Mustard Pots or Vessels for Table. Use.
I, GUILIO CARMELO NOBILE, of The Monico Shaftesbury Avenue, in the City
and County of London, Manager of Restaurant do hereby declare the nature of
this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention relates to improvements in mustard pots or vessels for table use
having for object to enable the consumer to mix the mustard as he requires it,
thereby ensuring to the consumer the full flavor and strength of the condiment in
a sightly condition, avoiding the unsightly and unappetising appearance of a
mustard pot from which mustard has been previously taken, and it consists, (as will
be seen upon reference to the accompanying sheet of drawings upon which Figure 1,
represents a vertical section, Figure 2, a horizontal section and Figure 3, an eleva-
tion of a mustard pot embodying my invention) in providing the pot or vessel with
one compartment or chamber A for containing water and another B for containing
mustard in a dry state, separating these compartments or chambers by a diaphragm
or diaphragms C having an orifice or orifices D, which may be opened to cause
the contents of the one chamber to pass into the other and be closed at pleasure by
means of a stopper or valve E.
The rotation of the mixer F may be effected by means of suitable clockwork
mechanism arranged within the upper portion of the pot or vessel, or by hand

page_text: by turning the knob or handle G attached to the spindle H which carries the
mixer F.
The stopper or valve E may be held in position by means of a pin h secured in
the spindle H, engaging with the upper portion of the pot or vessel.
The mustard spoon or spoons I will be of such shape as I may find most suitable
for the shape of pot or vessel, and may be held in position shown when not in use
by means of a spring clip K secured to the side of the pot or vessel, which may be
of any shape and in glass, metal or other material, and in sections, or fitted together
as to be readily taken apart for cleaning and put together for use.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
A mustard pot or vessel comprising two distinct chambers or compartments
communicating with one another by means of an orifice, the said orifice being
opened and closed by means of a stopper or valve, and provided with a stirrer
arranged to be operated by clockwork mechanism or by hand substantially as
described and illustrated upon the accompanying drawings.
