About the Designer

Michael Graves United States (1934 - )

Michael Graves is an influential architect and designer. He studied at Harvard University and taught at Princeton University while designing private houses in the abstract and austere style of orthodox Modernism. However, in the late 1970's he rejected this Modernist expression and began seeking a larger, Post-modernist vocabulary. The hulking masses of the Portland Building and the Humana Building both display his highly personal, Cubist new rendering of such Classical elements as colonnades and loggias. Though sometimes considered somewhat awkward, these and his later buildings, such as the Indianapolis Art Center, have been acclaimed for their ironic interpretation of traditional forms. It is this sensibility that has projected Graves to a star among designers, as can be seen in his many designs for Alessi that clearly depict a "new Americana," such as the best selling 9093 Kettle.

The 9093 Kettle with Bird Whistle became a household favorite throughout the world from the very beginning (1985). This sole design has sold the greatest number of units in the entire history of Alessi, and, furthermore, it has been cited in numerous design manuals as one of the "most influential objects of the post-modern style." It is considered a forerunner to designs of today that incorporate a very "playful" approach.

Kim from Reston, VA	4.0 4/14/2013 Italian kettle Sleek, modern. Well made... Love the product. If looking for a visual distraction in your kitchen this is it. Looks great on my stainless wolf stove something out of the ordinary Was this helpful? Yes / No
Becky from Kitchener, ON	5.0 2/17/2013 just perfect Product came quickly and in perfect condition and is beautiful. The whistle makes a nice light tone when boiling. Worth every penny! Was this helpful? Yes / No
Lewis from Seattle, WA	5.0 2/12/2013 Personality Good Design My once cold kitchen now has a warm and inviting personality-- the routine of making coffee (French press) has become an inviting part of my day. Who knew a tea kettle could do that Was this helpful? Yes / No
Thomas Nicewarner from Austin, TX	5.0 9/25/2012 Yard Guy My daughter is getting married this month and this was the perfect gift for her, and she has already put it in the kitchen. It is a beautiful kettle. Was this helpful? Yes / No
Roberto Ruiz from WASHINGTON, DC	5.0 9/9/2012 Wonderful Great at the practical job of boiling water and wonderful at delighting by design. Only con is that sticker from Alessi on the kettle left a mark that I think will come out with time. Was this helpful? Yes / No
cait from ny ny	3.0 9/3/2012 Disappointed in bird whistle Bird whistle bubbled and discolored from heat around its base the third time we used it. The cost of replacement is ridiculous. Personally, I think the kettle is over-priced. It is diminutive in size and weight. Stylistically it is charming, but again, over-priced. Was this helpful? Yes / No
Paula Smith from Loveland, OH	5.0 7/29/2012 perfect condition It came in perfect condition. Great price for this item when I compared. I had this same kettle before but burned it on the stove. I didn't look forward to spending the money again but it's beautiful and I had the last one ten years. Was this helpful? Yes / No
Jason from New York, NY	5.0 7/24/2012 Love It! Not just aesthetically pleasing, this kettle heats water quickly and has a distinctive and pleasing whistle. It's really a timeless design that will complement kitchens of many styles. Was this helpful? Yes / No
susan feilich from redding, CT	5.0 7/22/2012 Alessi Tea Kettle! I love this classic tea kettle !!!!! The design is simple and elegant and functions equally. The only con is its a little tough to pull out the whistle while it is hot, you must wait 30 seconds before taking it out. However a small sacrifice for aesthetics Was this helpful? Yes / No
Alyson Vogel from Brooklyn, NY	5.0 6/18/2012 Gorgeous Like all the Alessi products this kettle is stunning. Keep it away from grease when you cook and don't even think of using steel wool to clean it. Was this helpful? Yes / No
