Kettle Bulb



I've never seen such unique kettles before. Have you?

This kettle uses a light bulb to heat up water and this what making it ultra unique. The brilliant creation is form Estelle Sauvage from Superior National School of Art and Design in Saint-Etienne.

It works with the heat of an incandescent light bulb 100W, the water in the kettle is protected from the bulb so you don't have to worry about the accidentally electrocuting yourself while boiling your hot tea. Without a doubt, it is a perfect kettle that recycles the heat from the interior lighting. It is considered successful in terms of the aesthetic, with its minimalist look. The light bulb is mounted on a simple wooden base, at the same time the kettle contains a niche that perfectly matches the shape of the bulb.

The sale is forbidden since September,2009 in France. It is sadly to see the ending of product and the existence of it within homes. However it really works, it doesn't reach the boiling point of the water but to an ideal temperature for tea, approximately 85 / 90°C.

Although the revolutionary object finished its life sadly, it was still presented in July of 2010 at the Centre Pompidou in Metz, in the exhibition "Now Imagine" to show everyone about the ingenious creation from Estelle Sauvage.
