This famous 9093 kettle, with the bird that whistles when the water boils, has been a great success since its creation in 1985. For the Alessi brand, it represents the meeting point between great design and the large-scale production methods sought by its American designer Michael Graves. His work incorporates the artist's characteristic visual codes, combining influences from Art Deco and Pop Art, right through to the language of cartoons. The kettle has appeared in a number of films (Crocodile Dundee, Ghost, Per una notte d'amore...). This designer kitchen accessory, which is also suitable for induction hobs, is made from 18/10 stainless steel with a polyamide handle and bird whistle, giving it an authentic look and making it a great decorative item to give as a gift or for yourself.

In 1921, Giovanni Alessi founded the Italian company Alessi. Since 1929, the company has focussed on producing nickel- or silver-plated copper tableware. When Carlo Alessi, Giovanni's son, was appointed design director in 1935, handcrafting methods were replaced by industrial manufacturing. In 1955, the company began collaborating with world-renowned architects and designers such as Richard Sapper, Ettore Sottsass, and later, Philippe Starck and Marcel Wanders. Alessi makes design accessible by focussing on useful, humorous and visually appealing home accessories. Most of its products have become design classics that are sold and exhibited around the world.
