The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A fish kettle, or turbotiere, was designed in the 18th and 19th centuries specifically for poaching whole fish evenly over open hearths or range stoves.

These kettles were fashioned from heavy gauge copper for superior thermal conductivity, fitted with riveted brass or iron handles, and lined with tin to prevent chemical reactions with acidic ingredients.

Authentic period pieces typically feature heavy hand-hammered or drawn copper construction, hand-riveted handles, dovetail seams, and evidence of historical re-tinning on the interior.

Today, these deep copper vessels are frequently repurposed as rustic table centrepieces, beverage coolers filled with ice for entertaining, or decorative planters on kitchen islands.

Copper exteriors should be cleaned with specialised non-abrasive polish or a lemon paste, while tin linings should be washed gently with warm soapy water avoiding abrasive scourers.
