For this Il Conico Kettle, a design from 1986, Aldo Rossi transformed his architectural ideas into an everyday kitchen object. As its name implies, this Italian-made, stainless steel design icon is shaped like a cone, and it features a magnetic bottom, making it especially suitable for induction cooking. Both the kettle’s manufacturer, Alessi, and Aldo Rossi are represented in MoMA’s collection. The Il Conico Kettle has a 2-quart capacity and measures 8.7h x 8.9"diam. (Please note that this kettle does not whistle when the water reaches a boil.)
