About this item
This enameled steel tea kettle brings a sculptural, post‑modern presence to shelves or stovetop displays with its dark grey speckled finish and curled handle.
Designed in the Memphis‑style tradition associated with the 1980s postmodern movement, the kettle reflects the playful geometry and unconventional household forms linked to Ettore Sottsass and the group’s design language. Made of steel with an enameled surface and a coiled handle, it offers a functional or decorative accent with a distinctly post‑modern profile. The rubber covering at the base of the handle shows some weathering and is visible in the photos.
Diameter at the base is 8.75 inches; inner body height is 4 inches.
