9091 KETTLE

  The 9091 was Alessi's first designer kettle, ushering in a long and successful tradition. The central element in the design is the brass whistle which, when the steam exits, produces a short and pleasant melody. Richard Sapper wanted to avoid the usual anxiety-generating noise produced by other kettles then on the market, and by following this exquisitely poetic philosophy he produced what is probably the first multisensory object for the kitchen.    DESIGNER: Richard Sapper DIMENSIONS: Ø 16.5CM x 19CM (H) – capacity: 200CLMATERIAL­S: 18/10 stainless steel mirror polished with melodic whistle in brass and handle in PA, black.
