Alessi Michael Graves Whistling Bird Kettle - Black Special Edition Review

Alessi Michael Graves Whistling Bird Kettle - Black Special Edition
Average Reviews:

This is a useful and artistically beautiful kettle. The whistle is not too loud but it whistles. You need to remove the bird whistle before pouring the hot water out and do not forget to use a glove as the escaping steam may burn your fingers.
This kettle was considered a classic piece of modern art to merit a spot at the Musem of Modern Art in New York City (I believe the version there is the anodized one which is no longer sold in the USA).
If you lose the whistle, you can replace it for under $15.00 depending where you purchase it from.
If you do not care about a beautiful piece of art in your kitchen then this kettle is not for you.

I have owned this tea kettle for about 10 years. Not only is it fully functional as staple in my kitchen, it's adorable. Everyone who enjoys tea at my house comments on it. It is very durable, heavily constructed, and uniquely designed by Michael Graves. And of course, it "whistles". This is one tea kettle that you'll never have to replace; you won't be disappointed. It looks as good today as the day I opened the box. It's definitely a 5-star item.

A beautiful little bird adorns the spout of this kettle and whistles when contents boil. Designed in 1985 by Michael Graves, the eye-catching kitchen accessory is crafted with an 18/10 stainless-steel body, and a handle and bird whistle in durable PA resin that adds a splash of color. Choose from blue or ivory handles. The kettle's wider base lets the water boil more quickly, making it a favorite for busy, modern-day users. The kettle measures 8-1/2 inches in diameter and 9 inches high. It should be hand washed only. Fabulous on its own, the kettle also pairs beautifully with other Michael Graves pieces from Alessi and makes a great gift idea. Both whistling bird and lid can be replaced.
