The introduction of the
whistling tea kettle around 1920 solved the pesky problem of knowing
precisely when water for tea reached a full, rollicking boil. The design
of this Simplex kettle has remained virtually unchanged since it was first
produced in 1920.
Handcrafted English
Tea Kettle of solid copper with pure tin lining.
Boils water quickly,
has a patented whistling device built into, part of this device is a ball
and valve assembly inside the spout - prevents steam from escaping through
the spout, redirecting it to a hole in the kettle's lid.
The resulting whistle is
music to a tea lover's ears.
