Indian Hand Painted Aluminium Shri Jagannath Hand Painted Tea Kettle Pot

I am in LOVE with this Tea Kettle!It is beautiful, unique and functional. As soon as it came in the mail, I cleaned it and put it to use to make myself a pot of Chamomile tea. The tea kettle is beautifully hand painted with images from tribal Indian culture on the top and the sides. I was concerned when I ordered it that the paint would not hold up to the stove's heat but it did just fine on my first use. My only wish is that the kettle whistled when the water was boiling but I can overlook that because of the uniqueness and beauty of the tea kettle.This tea kettle is a piece of art and something that I would expect to find on Etsy and not Amazon. They even included a personal note in with the shipment which is something that I have never experienced from an Amazon vendor in the past.The kettle is so beautiful that you will want to leave it on your stovetop as a conversation starter.
