Le Creuset Ogive Teakettle Q9600

Date Published: 4/26/06

The Le Creuset Ogive Tea Kettle Q9600 is constructed with a durable hard-gloss enamel finish over steel and beautifully adorned in an array of vibrant colors. This model is striking, with a triangular body and contrasting spout and handle that give it the look of a pointer. The name "Ogive" in architecture refers to a diagonal arch across a gothic vault. The styling of the kettle is sure to be a conversation piece in your kitchen.

The kettle itself has a 1.7-quart capacity and a melodious harmonic whistle that sounds when the water starts boiling. The interior is also coated with the hard-enamel finish for long-lasting performance. A heat-resistant ergonomic handle provides excellent balance when lifting and also stays cool to the touch for safety. The pour spout is also fitted with a heat-resistant cap (which houses the whistle) and has a flip-back lever so you can halt the whistling and pour.

The kettle's lid is also solidly constructed with a matching enamel finish and stainless-steel inner plate that fits snugly and protects the inside of the lid from the usual wear and tear from boiling. The base of the kettle is 12 inches in diameter and should be used on a small burner. The flat bottom is suitable for use with gas, electric, radiant, ceramic, halogen, and induction stoves.
