I'm something of a coffee-pot connoisseur, and Sylvie's description does
sound something like a percolator, but I think she is describing a "moka
pot".  We have three of these, in three sizes, made in Italy.  This page
shows an example:

In my house right now, I have percolators (both electric and the stovetop
one we use when camping), vacuum pots, moka pots, and my "coffee saucepan",
a tiny yellow-enamelled saucepan with a percolator insert and a big glass lid.

If it has to do with coffee making, we have probably tried it!
