Porcelain Whistling Tea Kettle, 70 oz
This black and white butterfly whistling tea kettle holds a generous 70 oz (about 2 liters), making it a solid choice for families or anyone who brews multiple cups in a row. The body is porcelain-coated steel, which gives it that smooth, painterly finish without sacrificing durability. It works on gas and electric stovetops. The whistling spout lets you know when the water is ready so nothing boils away unnoticed. Hand wash only to keep the design looking its best. For tips on keeping your kettle in top shape, our guide on how to descale a tea kettle is worth a read.
The Real Difference
A Whistling Kettle That Earns Its Spot
You know that feeling when the kettle whistles and the whole kitchen smells like morning? This one brings that back, with a butterfly print pretty enough to leave on the stove all day. No more forgotten boiling water, no more plain appliances hogging your counter. It is the kind of thing that makes your tea ritual feel like an actual ritual, not just a chore between two meetings. If you love the look of a vintage whistling kettle for the stove, you will feel right at home here.
What It's Made Of
Porcelain Finish, Sturdy Steel Inside
Hold on now, because the finish on this one is worth talking about. The steel body is coated in porcelain, which is how you get that smooth, almost painted look with the black and white butterfly design. It is not a sticker, not a decal. The porcelain coating also means the surface stays cleaner longer and does not pick up every little scratch. Mind you, that is exactly why hand washing is the way to go here.
Picture This
Morning Tea, No Guesswork Needed
You put the kettle on, go fold a blanket or feed the cat, and a few minutes later it calls you back with a whistle. No timer, no checking, no boiled-dry kettle. You pour, you steep, you sit. The 70 oz capacity means you can fill it once and brew for the whole household without running back to the tap. Between you and me, that is the kind of small luxury that adds up over a week.
Day In, Day Out
Big Enough for the Whole Household
Seventy ounces is not a small number, dear. That is enough water for a good four to six mugs without a refill, which matters on a slow Sunday morning or when you have a friend over for tea. The whistling spout does the watching for you, so you are free to do other things. And because it works on both gas and electric stovetops, it moves with you if you ever switch up your kitchen setup.
What You Get
One Kettle, Ready to Whistle
Your order includes one Black and White Butterfly Porcelain Whistling Tea Kettle at 70 oz. That is it, no extras, no fuss. It arrives ready to use on your gas or electric stovetop. Well now, just give it a quick hand wash before the first use and you are all set. The butterfly design is part of the porcelain coating, so what you see in the photos is exactly what lands on your doorstep.
FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
How much water does this kettle actually hold?
It holds 70 oz, which works out to roughly 2 liters. That is enough for four to six generous mugs of tea without a refill, making it a great fit for households that go through a good amount of hot water in the morning.
Will this kettle work on my stovetop?
It is compatible with gas and electric stovetops. If you have an induction cooktop, this one is not the right fit, so you will want to check our collection of induction-compatible options before ordering.
How do I clean it without ruining the butterfly design?
Hand wash only, always. The porcelain coating that carries the black and white butterfly motif does not take kindly to the dishwasher. A gentle sponge and warm soapy water will keep it looking sharp for a long time.
Is the design painted on or is it a decal that might peel?
The butterfly motif is part of the porcelain coating on the steel body, not a sticker or a decal applied on top. That said, hand washing and avoiding abrasive scrubbers will help the finish stay intact over time.
Does it actually whistle, or is that just a name?
It genuinely whistles. The spout is designed to let out a whistle once the water reaches a boil, so you do not have to stand over the stove watching it. It is one of those simple features that turns out to be surprisingly useful every single day.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
