The kettle merges traditional Chinese aesthetics with a modern look, making it a fit to modern home settings. Its subtly angled body enhances ergonomics, facilitating a smooth pouring experience and maintaining stability. The handle features a butterfly with outstretched wings, and the slightly inclined form evoke a sense of lightness and elegance, as if a butterfly were being ready for fluttering and flying, infusing the product with a sense of dynamic vitality. This design not only offers a visually appealing and harmonious artistic expression but also seeks to enhance the user experience, allowing the act of pouring water to flow as gracefully as a butterfly's movement. Additionally, the designers aspire to raise awareness about environmental conservation through this innovative animal-inspired design, calling upon a collective commitment to protecting the natural world and our ecological home, attaining an ideal blend of functionality, aesthetics, and environmental consciousness.

The spout features a biomimetic design with a gentle upward curve, preventing water from dripping down the side during pouring. The soft curves enveloping the kettle's body is perceived as stretched. Users can easily operate the kettle with one hand, regardless of its size, by simply pressing the switch to pour. Constructed entirely from food-grade materials that are safe, antibacterial, and resistant to residue, the kettle ensures the delivery of safe drinking water.
