MacKenzie Childs | Courtly Check Tea Kettle, 3 QT.
Imagine the crisp rhythm of black and white checks brightening your stovetop, where a soft whistle invites you to that first steep of oolong or a comforting pot of breakfast blend, wrapping the morning in a bit of timeless whimsy. We adore MacKenzie-Childs' Courtly Check Enamel 3-Quart Tea Kettle for how it turns the everyday boil into a joyful ritual you'll want to repeat. They've crafted it from heavy-gauge steel, hand-glazed and painted with those signature color-dragged checks for depth and delight, then rimmed it in bronzed stainless for a warm, enduring edge. The wood handle stays cool and easy to hold, while the lid's brass accents and carved faux-cinnabar bead add a touch of heirloom sparkle, letting you peek at the steam or even repurpose it as a vase for fresh blooms.
We chose this one because it fits seamlessly into cozy solo moments or lively brunches, heating evenly on gas or electric (medium heat only, no induction) with a 9-inch base and height that keeps it handy on any counter.
Each handmade piece arrives with its own subtle charm, softening over time into something truly yours, and it exceeds U.S. safety standards like California's Proposition 65 for worry-free pours. Set it on, listen for the call, and let the warmth unfold.
