After visiting Italy a couple times, I'd like to purchase a sugar bowl like the ones you see in the cafe shops there to compliment my espresso machine. The type I'm looking for is glass and stainless steel and always has a unique way of opening. One I saw has a lid that opens as you lift up the provided spoon. Another has a handle attatched to the lid that opens the lid automatically as you lower it. These are neat "marvels" of engineering. If any of you have been to Italy (particualarly Rome), you know what unique sugar bowls they have in their shops.

I've done ebay and google searches and can't find sugar bowls that are as unique as the ones in the stores there. Maybe companies that provide coffee related items to the cafes?

This forum is such a wealth of information, I thought I'd try here, even though it's an odd item to search for.

Any ideas??
