The 9091 kettle has a melodic brass whistle with a new shape, made up of two small pipes in which choristers are inserted which reproduce the notes E and B. Richard Sapper created it inspired by a childhood memory, the poetic sound of the sirens of the boats on the Rhine river: because the melody that accompanies the release of the steam must be pleasant, not anxiety-provoking like the typical whistle of kettles. The 9091 kettle is a multi-sensorial object, which will not interrupt a pleasant pause with a whistle, but with an enveloping melody.
“Il conico” is the architecturally derived kettle created by Aldo Rossi: made of 18/10 stainless steel, it is the transformation of his geometric designs into a kitchen object, which soon became a design icon.
