Hand made in England for over 100 years, Simplex tea kettles are both timeless and durable. This "No. 1" solid copper model features a high gloss finish, pure tin lining, solid brass embellishments, and a beechwood handle. A unique and attractive addition to your kitchen, it is suitable for use with gas or electric stoves and emits a pleasant whistle when water comes to a boil. Due to their design, Simplex kettles will never whistle on ceramic, glass, or induction stove tops.
