I suppose smallwares wouldn't require 'industrial' quantities of aluminum.  I further suppose that
if we are discussing Napoleon III, it is entirely possible that he may have had some
aluminium/aluminum service dishes lying baout.

Isn't it odd that, at one time, Aluminum was priced more preciously than gold...and now we roll it
around our Thanksgiving Turkeys, and discard it when we are done?  What a differenc a few decades
make, eh?
