🍷 Vintage 1980s Mitsubishi "EP-860C" Showa Retro Electric Kettle - Boxed Set 🍷
Bring the cozy, nostalgic atmosphere of a 1980s Japanese home or traditional Tokyo "Kissaten" (retro café) into your space with this beautiful vintage MITSUBISHI electric kettle, model EP-860C.
Manufactured during the late Showa to early Heisei era (approx. 1980s - 1990s), this collectible piece features a deep, rich wine-red finish paired with a charmingly rounded, classical silhouette. Unlike modern minimalist appliances, it radiates an inviting warmth and stands out as a genuine piece of historical Japanese domestic culture.
This exceptional find comes preserved in its original vintage cardboard box, complete with the original Japanese instruction manual and warranty card (expired). It is an absolute treasure for collectors of retro Asian pop kitchenware or unique interior display props!

⚠️ Condition (Vintage Pre-owned / Power Tested):
• Power Tested: The unit has been plugged in to verify that it powers on and the indicator lights respond smoothly.

The original instruction booklet shows creases, wrinkles, and natural yellowing. The outer cardboard box has light edge wear, but remains structurally sound.
