There's a difference between a kettle that just boils water and one that feels like part of your kitchen's design. This one was made to be the second kind.
The body is 201 stainless steel with a mirror-polish finish that stays easy to wipe clean and keeps its shine wash after wash, paired with a 304 stainless steel base — the same higher-grade steel used where heat conduction and daily wear matter most. The handle is where the design quietly stands out — a warm, wood-grain finish over an ergonomically shaped grip that stays cool to the touch even at a full rolling boil, with a one-hand pour lever built in for actual everyday use, not just the product photo.
At 3.0L, it holds enough for a full pot of tea or several rounds of pour-over without taking over your stovetop. The base is built thick-gauge and warp-resistant, so it keeps sitting flat and heating evenly boil after boil, year after year — not just for the first few months like cheaper kettles that start to dip and wobble at the base. It works across gas, electric, and induction stovetops — one kettle, any kitchen. When the water's ready, a genuinely loud whistle lets you know, so nothing boils over while you're in another room.
The design leans intentionally timeless rather than trend-driven — the kind of rounded, wood-handled silhouette that feels at home whether your kitchen is brand new or full of pieces collected over years.
