Top Iconic Kitchen Accessories

Kitchen Improvement

You don’t need to be a culinary genius to get excited about purchasing kitchen accessories. There are many iconic items out there that will really make the kitchen the heart of your home and add style and sophistication in a practical way. We take a look at some of the most popular items available to buy today.

Freshly squeezed orange juice is a fabulous morning treat, and even more so if you get to use the Juicy Salif, which was designed by Alessi. The rocket ship style squeezer actually took its inspiration from the anatomy of a squid. The design is said to be so good that even if you never use it for its intended purpose, it will look like a piece of art on the kitchen worktop.

Another contemporary kitchen classic is the Dualit toaster. Although the aesthetics of this machine are reminiscent of times long gone, the Dualit is actually a fabulously modern addition to a kitchen. Not only does it have the usual toasting functions you would expect, it also incorporates independent controls and a cage for toasted sandwiches. The classic chrome design is an essential component in any kitchen, and will complement the Juicy Salif perfectly.

Amongst the list of kitchen accessories that no home should be without is a casserole dish by Le Cruiset. Today, these iconic cast iron cook pots are available in many different colours, but we think that the traditional volcanic orange is the only one to go for. The classically French design has been the trademark of these dishes for over 100 years, and the continuation of the range is testament to the enduring iconic status of the product.

The armadillo bread bin looks like a woodlouse, knight in shining armour hybrid, but it is in fact a super way to keep a loaf of bread fresh. The wood and metal construction has the potential to be a timeless kitchen accessory even though it has just come on the market. It certainly makes a difference to a kitchen with a contemporary theme.

Our final recommendation for purchasing the very best of kitchen accessories is the Bugatti Vera kettle. The sleek Italian design is worthy of the Bugatti name, and as it is available in a classic burned orange colour, it will compliment the volcanic orange of Le Cruiset products. The best thing about this kettle is not that you can choose the temperature you want, but the fact that it has a screen embedded in it’s handle to display all its amazing features.
