The 9093 Whistling Bird Teakettle was designed by Michael Graves in 1985 and has been in continuous production ever since. It is Alessi's bestselling product of all time.

A mirror-polished stainless steel body paired with a color-matched handle in heat-resistant resin, and a small bird perched at the spout that sings when the water reaches a boil. Not a mechanical whistle. A bird.

That detail, small and precise, is what makes it an icon. It turns the moment the water is ready into something you look forward to.

Available in three colors: Blue with a red bird, Black with a black bird, White with a white bird. Made in Italy. Works on all cooktops, including induction.

A Closer Look

Michael Graves believed that everyday objects deserve more than utility. The Whistling Bird Teakettle was one of the first objects to prove it.

The bird at the spout is not decorative. It is the whistle. When the water boils, it sings. A small detail that turns a routine moment into something that makes you smile, every time.

Nearly forty years later, it is still in production. Still on kitchen stovetops around the world. Still making people smile.
