If you want an appliance that blends in just as much as it stands out, this is your kettle. Something about the cast iron just feels right in your hand, and it grounds any kitchen in an effortlessly chic level of coziness. Maybe that’s a lot of pressure to put on a tea kettle, but this one delivers. Moreover, the enameled design keeps liquids warm long after they’re heated. So it’s the perfect stove-to-tabletop device.
The Teapot: Alessi Michael Graves Tea Kettle
Price: $215
Where to Buy It: Neiman Marcus
This kettle is for the minimalist. Its sleek, stainless-steel look is less ornate — read: flashy — than some of the others on our list, and will keep your countertop from looking too overwhelmed. Still, it’s far from boring with its polished mirror finish and (our favorite part) the adorable bird whistle on the spout.
