In a small kitchen, details are everything. From the finish on the cabinets to the hardware color, it all works together to create the homey charm that differentiates a truly beautiful home. Adding a copper kettle to your stovetop is a detail that instantly elevates.

For evidence, look no further than Dakota Johnson's viral green kitchen. In addition to the Alligator Alley painted cabinets, a Solid Copper Whistling Kettle (available at Amazon) on her stovetop is one of the most interesting details in the space. It adds a touch of brightness to the black of the hob and integrates a vintage-style modern farmhouse detail in the least expected of places.

We were able to track down the exact stovetop kettle Dakota uses as part of her daily routine, and it's just as stunning individually as it looks on her countertops.

It's clear from the price point that Dakota's pick is a luxury choice, in line with the best electric kettles on the market. It's made of stunning, shiny copper with a stylish wooden handle, making it easy to hold. The shape also adds some flair to the countertops with additional details that make it look even more interesting.

Luckily, you can tap into the modern farmhouse style of Dakota Johnson's kettle without spending $500. Here are a few of our editors' favorite accessibly priced pieces.

Shop more copper pieces

Not everyone is a coffee or tea person, but that doesn't mean you can't access the timeless style of copper French cookware. Especially if you have limited counter space, copper pots and pans hanging from the ceiling are a wonderful option to elevate your kitchen in lieu of Dakota's stovetop kettle.


Metallics are always a great choice, and a copper kettle is wonderful because it can be used in an often unsightly area of the kitchen. As opposed to painting the cabinets, it's an accessible upgrade that can be easily integrated at any time.

As per usual, thank you to Dakota for the idea.
