  • The Buckingham No. 3 - Where timeless craft meets everyday comfort

    Crafted in the 21st century using techniques passed down through generations, the Simplex tea kettle by Newey & Bloomer is more than a kitchen essential - it’s a celebration of British tradition. Every detail, from the coiled base designed for gas stoves (ensuring a fast, efficient boil), to the whistle, (ingeniously hidden in the lid), is lovingly handmade by our skilled artisans in Birmingham, England.

    Each kettle takes over a month to complete, and it shows in the care, quality, and character of every piece. The mirror-finished chrome exterior brings a sleek, modern shine to a design that dates back to 1903. Look for the stamp “Made in England” on the base - a proud mark of our heritage.

    When the water’s ready, you’ll hear the distinctive Simplex whistle - a charming signal that it’s time to pause, pour, and enjoy the simple joy of a perfectly brewed cup of tea.

    The Buckingham No. 3 is easy to maintain and sure to shine in any kitchen.

    Please allow 3–4 weeks for delivery, as each kettle is handcrafted to order.

    Newey & Bloomer Simplex tea kettles are all handmade and as such, overall dimensions may vary slightly from those shown above. 

  • 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:

    • Have the flame so high that it engulfs the coil and run up the side of the kettle
    • Leave water in the kettle overnight
    • Put your kettle in a dishwasher
    • Let the 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

    What a beautiful kettle

    I probably shouldn't get excited about a kettle but it is a work of art that is useful!! Looks great atop my gas Aga.
