Alessi 9091 Kettle
The 9091 kettle has a melodic whistle made of brass in a shape that has never been seen before and consisting of two small vents in which the tuners that reproduce the notes mi and si are inserted. Richard Sapper created this kettle inspired by a childhood remembrance, the poetic sound of boats' sirens at River Rhine: this is because the melody that accompanies the vapour outlet must be pleasant and not anxious like the whistle of boilers. This induction kettle is a polysensory object which will not interrupt an enjoyable break with a whistle, but with a captivating melody.
Replacement pitch pipes available here.
