Daily eBay – Alessi

Today’s Daily eBay is cute, quirky and collectable. It’s also a fantastic credit crunch Christmas present, and you’ll be re-using and recycling too. It’s the Alessi Blue Bird Kettle, designed by Michael Graves.

Alessi is a bit Marmitey; you love it or you hate it. It’s definitely true that one kitchen can have too much Alessi. Alessi cutlery, fruit bowls, coffee cups, dog, cat, kitchen sink, husband. It can be too much for sure, but the odd well-chosen piece is a good idea.

The Blue BIrd Kettle is an Alessi favourite and somewhat of a design classic. A whistling hob kettle, it is crafted in gleaming stainless steel with a thermoplastic resin handle and base, an anti-scale filter and, of course, the defining whistling bird spout. It has a magnetic stainless steel heat-diffusing bottom.

It’s used but in good condition. New, it sells for around £100. This one has a current bid price of £9.99, and bidding ends October 19 at 16.20pm.
