If you are looking for a modern and original kettle, far from the classic ones of a lifetime—the kind your grandmother would bring out during family gatherings—the Tea Rex stainless steel kettle Michael Graves Alessi is exactly what you need. We warn you: this kettle leaves no one indifferent and will become the centre of attention when you bring it to the table.

This kettle, made from high-quality 18/10 stainless steel and thermoplastic resin, has been designed by the renowned American architect Michael Graves. This artist has a very distinctive personal style that is reflected in all his works, and this kettle is no exception.

To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the kettle, Graves redesigned the whistle. His idea was to transform the little bird into a fascinating creature that is both mythical and futuristic. This being lies somewhere between a dragon and a flying dinosaur, hence the name “Tea Rex”, reminiscent of “Tyrannosaurus Rex”.

In Chinese culture, the dragon symbolises strength and good fortune; it is a symbol of good luck. Who knows—perhaps by placing this Tea Rex stainless steel kettle by Michael Graves for Alessi in your kitchen, luck will come knocking at your door. Would you like to find out?
