Wide-mouth Tea Kettle
29Feb08
We are big fans of the tea pot in our house, especially during these winter months. The last couple of weeks though we have noticed that our trusty little stainless steel tea pot has lost it’s whistle. It got me thinking that maybe it’s time to start looking for another. That’s when I stumbled across this one from Target. By the looks of it designer Michael Graves knew his tea pots. For example our old one has a spout with whistle and a lid, but we almost never use the lid, filling it instead from the spout. Obviously Michael had this in mind when he designed the Wide-Mouth Tea Kettle because it ships sans lid. All the filling cleaning pouring and general tea loving are made possible by the extra wide pour spout. I really like the contrast of the rust colored whistle with the gun metal grey of the pot. It also is available in white.Available at Target for $18.

The joy of Target.
It almost looks like an iron, from a certain angle.
Looks like they actually learned something from previous attempts at producing design tea kettles, none of which were very practical.
The shape in conjunction with the color scheme reminds me of a bird! I love it.
Woow the tea kettle is lovely.i love it.Thanks for sharing.
I love mine, but have yet to hear a whistle, plenty of boiling, just no whistling. It says something about a flip-up whistle, but I have yet to find anything to flip up besides spout. Am I losing my mind. There was nothing else in the box and no directions and I spend my tea-drinking time trying to figure out why I can’t make it whistle. Help! Help! And please use language that doesn’t make me feel totally stupid. Thanks a heap. I’ll keep drinking my Tazo Zen and hoping for the best.
