Toraja Restored Lever — 1958

NAVERQIO Heritage — machines with a second century in them

The Toraja is mid-century espresso brought back to work, not to a shelf: boiler re-certified, group re-sleeved and re-sprung to factory feel, chrome redone by our Bohemian platers, and a dossier that proves every claim.

Restoration here means metal, not paint. Machines are stripped to the last stud; boilers are pressure-tested or re-made; groups are re-sleeved and re-sprung; chrome and enamel are redone by the same Bohemian platers who do our new work. What cannot be saved is re-machined from the original drawings — and noted honestly in the piece's papers.

Specifications

Care

Backflush with blind basket daily (water) and weekly (espresso detergent); wipe and purge steam wands after every jug. Change group gaskets yearly, water filtration on schedule, and book the included annual service — our technicians travel with the parts they actually need.

Questions, Answered

Do you take commissions?
Yes. If you have a machine with history, our restorers will assess it; if you want us to find one, the concierge keeps a want-list.

Can I see it working before purchase?
The Prague atelier pulls shots on any heritage piece by appointment — or we send a commissioning video of your actual machine before dispatch.

The NAVERQIO Promise

One standard across the range: if we would not put it on our own bar in Prague, it does not ship with the NAVERQIO mark.
