Vintage copper teapot, mid-century – kettle with porcelain handle, circa 1960

This charming copper teapot is a prime example of mid-century kitchen design. The bulbous body, crafted from gleaming copper, is complemented by an elegantly curved brass handle and a fine porcelain grip. The porcelain is decorated with classic blue and white floral motifs that harmonize perfectly with the knob on the lid.

• Condition: Beautiful vintage patina, probably tinned inside (typical for use as a water kettle).

• Design detail: The combination of metal and porcelain gives the jug a timeless elegance that fits both a country kitchen and a modern interior.

• Use: Ideal as a decorative highlight on the stove, for traditional tea time or as a collector's item for lovers of vintage copperware.

Zwettl, summer market. The copper pot with the porcelain handle combines two materials that don't belong together — and yet harmonize perfectly. Mid-Century design at its best: functional and beautiful.
