Kettle Le Creuset Cloche in Enameled Steel, Red, 2.1L with Gold-Tone Knob

Tea and coffee start with water at the right temperature

The Le Creuset Cloche Kettle is designed to heat water quickly with control. The rounded red body in enameled steel conducts heat efficiently, while the wide base improves contact with the flame or the active zone on the cooktop. The high handle keeps hands away from steam, and the metal knob in a gold tone makes it easy to open and close the lid safely.

The total capacity of 2.1 liters suits everyday routines and hosting. The spout has a flip-top cap that helps retain heat in the kettle and directs the stream to pour without splashing. It is the piece to heat water for tea, infusions and pour-over coffee with convenience, moving from stove to counter service without changing containers.

Compatible with induction, gas, electric, radiant and vitroceramic cooktops, it moves between different kitchens while keeping the signature Le Creuset red.

Enameled steel: durable color and protection

Enameled steel combines a metal core that responds quickly to heat with a vitrified coating that protects the surface. This layer helps cleaning, does not retain odors and sustains the color’s shine over time. The uniform enamel also creates a barrier between metal and water, important to preserve the interior of the piece.

In the Cloche design, the intense red highlights the rounded body and coordinates with other pieces from the brand. The gold-tone knob adds visual contrast and offers a steady grip when opening the lid. The high, heat-resistant handle favors carrying and keeps distance from the steam that exits the spout.

Together, these elements result in a solid kettle, made for daily stovetop use and to stay in sight on the counter when not in service.

2.1 L to serve the whole household

With 2.1 liters, you can heat enough water for several cups of tea or for the steps of brewing pour-over coffee. In 250 ml mugs, the capacity yields about eight servings, varying with cup volume and headspace left for boiling.

For a steady flow when pouring, tilt the kettle gently and keep the flip-top cap open. A constant stream helps wet coffee grounds evenly and controls water force over delicate tea leaves.

Always respect the fill mark indicated on the piece. Leaving space at the top prevents boil-overs and speeds up heating, as steam can escape easily.

Works across different heat sources

The kettle can be used on induction, gas, electric, radiant and vitroceramic stovetops. The broad base makes better use of the heated area and distributes heat through the body. On induction, start at medium power to raise temperature progressively; on gas, keep the flame centered, not rising up the sides, to preserve the enamel.

Do not heat the piece empty and do not let water boil away. Removing it from the heat at the desired temperature preserves the finish and avoids unnecessary overheating. When turning off the heat, hold the handle and angle steam away from the body before serving.

On vitroceramic and electric cooktops, wait a few moments after turning off: the surface remains hot and continues to transfer heat. On countertops, use a trivet so the warm base does not mark the surface.

Protect the enamel and performance

Hand-wash with warm water, mild detergent and a soft sponge. Dry thoroughly inside and out after washing to avoid water marks. Avoid abrasives, steel wool and knocking the piece against the sink, which can scratch the enamel.

Do not subject the kettle to thermal shock: after use, let it cool before washing. To remove mineral deposits, soak for a few minutes in a warm-water solution with a small amount of vinegar, then rinse and dry. Store with the lid resting, not fully sealed, so the interior can ventilate.

During heating, position the spout cap to release steam and direct it away from your hands. Use mitts when needed and keep children away from the stove while water is boiling.
