The Balmoral No. 3 — Timeless British craft, made for tea lovers everywhere
Handmade in England using traditional copper-spinning techniques, the Balmoral No. 3 Beehive Kettle by Newey & Bloomer is a cherished classic—just as loved today as when it was first patented in the 1950’s. With its elegant beehive silhouette and vintage charm, this kettle brings a sense of nostalgia and craftsmanship into the heart of your home.
Exclusively available only through our website, you won’t find the Balmoral No. 3 in any retail store - each one is handcrafted to order, making it truly special.
Every Balmoral kettle is made from the finest copper, lined with molten tin, and finished with a beautifully hand-turned beechwood handle. The mirror-chrome exterior is not only stunning but easy to maintain—adding lasting shine to your stovetop.
And when your water reaches a rolling boil, listen for its signature whistle - a comforting call that it's tea time.
Please allow 4–5 weeks for dispatch, as each kettle is individually crafted with care

Do:
- Keep water level just below the centre seam
- Hand wash only and dry with a soft cloth
- Clean chrome kettles with a wet soapy cloth and polish with a dry cloth to bring back its shine
- Use filtered water, particularly in hard water areas
- Empty any left over water after boiling and wipe the inside dry to prevent calcium (limescale) build up
-
Copper is an exceptional material in the kitchen and, when maintained properly, should give you many years of service
Do Not:

- Leave water in the kettle overnight
- Put your kettle in a dishwasher
- Let your Simplex tea kettle boil dry
- Clean with any acidic cleaning agents
- Scrub with steel wool or abrasive cleaning cloths/brushes or pads as this can lead to irreparable damage
