Made in England using artisan techniques perfected during King Edward’s reign, this is the solid copper tea kettle still preferred by the households of the Royal Family today. Hand crafted with the highest grades of pure copper and lined with pure tin, each kettle is spun and assembled by a skilled craftsman in a process that takes weeks to complete. The result is a unique work of functional art ready to serve generations of tea lovers. The kettle’s energy efficient coil base reduces boiling time up to 25% over common flat-bottomed varieties, while its lacquered beech handle always remains cool to the touch. The gloss-finished kettle’s distinctive, melodic whistle is produced through a slot in the lid with the aid of a small copper ball in the spout. For gas ranges only. 1.9 quart capacity. 10" H x 10" W x 8" D. (2 1/2 lbs.)
