Nothing Looks Better Than a Copper Cafetiere

The copper trend could have been made for copper cafetieres. The warm glow of copper looks irresistible alongside the deep black-brown shades of freshly pressed coffee.

You can pick up a copper cafetiere in a lot of places, but the Bodum Chambord 8 Cup French Press Coffee Maker is a tempting choice.

Former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz once commented that the Bodum French press made the “best cup of coffee known to mankind”. That’s quite the recommendation!

This beautiful copper French press is made with Bodum’s heat resistant glass and stainless steel filter. So you don’t have to compromise the integrity of your elevenses for aesthetics.

In a hurry? You can always take it with you in a sleek Bodum copper coffee mug…

Bright Copper Kettles

Before you can fire up that beautiful cafetiere, you’ll need hot water – and that part doesn’t have to be boring either. The right bright copper-coloured kettle lets you channel your inner Maria von Trapp in a totally contemporary way.

This Breville Strata Luminere comes in an unusual matt rose gold finish. The matt effect changes things up and combined with the crystal detail on the lid, this kettle is like jewellery for your kitchen.

It’s not the only way designers are mixing up metallics… Returning to true copper-coloured kettles from the rose gold end of the spectrum, here’s another clever twist on the trend.

Ombre isn’t just for hair, and this copper electric kettle is setting out to prove it.

Russell Hobbs Eclipse Copper Sunset Kettle is an elegant flip on a trusted kitchen equipment favourite. According to the brand, this Russell Hobbs Eclipse model is designed with a 75% quieter boil too.

And of course, it looks good. Ombre makes a considered variation on the copper trend, and the coordinating toaster is every bit as stylish.

Copper Kitchen Accessories Can Be Anything but Basic

Copper kitchen style is an ideal choice if you want to unify your kitchen because it’s so easy to carry across a range of items.

The colour works well on small electricals like kettles and toasters, but practical metallic accessories can take on the same effect so well. Even the most basic of essentials can join in.

Stash your kitchen tools in a copper utensil holder like this rotating version from KitchenCraft for a bolt of colour. Just set it against a black acrylic splashback and let the glossy copper finish truly shine.

Morphy Richards’ Accents Roll Top Bread Bin is a contemporary kitchen essential that won’t drag down your kitchen style.

The roll top on this stainless steel bread bin has been given a copper-coloured satin finish that plays up the colour’s brown tones. It’s a grown-up copper that steers away from glow and high gloss.

Realistic dimensions mean this anything-but-humble bread bin stands a good chance of containing the bread you need it to.

Copper Kitchen to Table

Copper cutlery is the simple, stylish change that will make a bigger impact than you think. Knives and forks are part of the mechanics of the day, so of course, most of us barely notice the details.

But let’s change that. Make your mealtimes a little bit more fabulous.

Berglander’s 30-piece set veers towards rose gold cutlery, hovering somewhere between the two metallic shades.

Try pairing copper cutlery with linen napkins to show to show it off as part of a table setting. And if you want to carry the trend through the house, why not?
