The Borosilicate Glass Kettle Range

At Morphy Richards, we understand plastic or stainless steel kettles aren’t for everyone. Enter the Lantern 1.5L Jug Glass Kettle with ribbed borosilicate glass, the premium upgrade for the design-conscious homeowner. 

Borosilicate Glass: The 2026 Kitchen Trend

In 2026, interior design is moving away from the plain block surfaces of the past towards transparency and texture of midcentury modern and soft industrial trends. Our borosilicate glass kettle features a ribbed, cylindrical glass that plays with light, and a stainless steel trim that exudes retro-modernity. This 1960s-style futuristic kettle is perfect to combine the practical needs of a modern home, while incorporating the style and quality of a retro appliance. 

Why Borosilicate? The Science of Premium Glass

Durability

Borosilicate glass is a higher-quality alternative to cheaper glass types like soda-lime glass, commonly found in cheaper kettles today. But what are the benefits of borosilicate glass? Borosilicate contains boron trioxide, a non-toxic oxide, which allows our Lantern 1.5L Jug Glass Kettle to go from cold to boiling temperatures almost instantly without cracking. This means you get value from your kettle for longer. Soda-lime glass, a commonly chosen material for glass kettles, does not possess this quality, leading soda-lime glass kettles to deteriorate faster than borosilicate glass kettles. 

Non-Toxic

In contrast to porous plastic kettles, our borosilicate glass kettles are non-porous and therefore non-toxic by design. This means microplastics that could filter into your boiled water from plastic kettles will never happen with our non-toxic glass electric kettles, letting you enjoy a brew with peace of mind. 

Stain-resistant

The non-porous condition of Borosilicate glass also makes it stain-resistant, leaving the Lantern 1.5L Jug Glass Kettle looking brand new for years to come.

Benefits of Borosilicate Glass vs Soda-Lime Glass

Easy-Clean Limescale with the Borosilicate Glass Kettle

At Morphy Richards, we appreciate that the most common pull and hesitation with glass kettles is being able to see inside. On the one hand, it's great to easily see exactly how much water is in your kettle, on the other hand, you may be able to see limescale build-up. So we’ve innovated a solution to this with our removable limescale filter, which not only can be pulled out and cleaned, but also catches sediment before it reaches your cup. The Lantern 1.5L Jug Glass Kettle is also designed with a stainless steel base covering the heated element and a wide-access lid to avoid build-up and make cleaning a breeze.
