WELL by Metier Atelier - contemporary kettle, new age water jug



In our quest for a consistent contemporary look in our house, we are always on the lookout for interesting takes on everyday items. Thus we were at Isetan Scotts where they have a very nice and wide ranging household section, when we spied a very modern looking water kettle. We have been looking for a nice water jug and it was love at first sight! As it has a see through glass lid, we thought why not use it as a water jug ? More so, it would be able to take boiled hot water as most of the water jugs we seen are either plasticky ( which isn't very healthy since heat has a effect on plastic) or have a heat endurance limit( eg, glass jugs have a max heat rating of 60degrees C to 80degrees C , beyond that which it may shatter ).


We were intrigued by it's clean lines, steel chromed finish and avant garde handle and of course , having the practicality of a see through glass lid to check the water level. It's abit of splurge at $97 so guess we will be drinking lots of water to make it worth it's weight :- P . But you do get quality for that price - high quality 18/10 stainless steel, tempered glass lid , easy grip heat resistant silicone handle and large spout for drip-free pouring.


For those keen, there is a line of household items of which this is one of them , under the brand - Metier Atelier. Model is WELL 2 litres stainless steel kettle.
