Lately everything copper has been catching my eye. So when our demure yellow kettle started showing it's age I went searching for a replacement. Kettle choices are abundant and can leave one reaching for a pot to boil water in.
During our search we came across Simplex Kettles. Beautifully crafted and Victorian by design I was completely enamoured! I can get that way about kitchen wares. They are a bit on the pricey side. However when you factor in the use, every day 2-3 times a day 365 days a year, it becomes deeply justifiable. Deeply justifiable with much consideration. Until deeply justifiable given to you as a gift!
It was exciting receiving this. And looks ever so smart on the black cooker. It boils leisurely and the whistle is a low modest one. Unlike the unassuming yellow kettle which would scream like a banshee. There are special care instructions due to the copper. The water seems to retain the heat better and even the tea we make seems to taste a bit better. Who knows what other copper items may show up in the kitchen. Enjoy your weekend! - JW
