A beautiful glass kettle for the moment of boiling water
"JENA GLAS," a synonym for heat-resistant glass, has its history and quality inherited by Trendglas-Jena, a company that still produces in Germany and Hungary, offering this kettle.
This kettle, made of heat-resistant glass, combines beauty and practicality. Even the ordinary time spent boiling water turns into an enjoyable moment.
Generous capacity of 1.75L
The kettle "Classic," made of heat-resistant glass that is resistant to thermal shock, has a generous capacity of 1.75L. It can be used directly on the stove, and the sight of the flame through the glass and the bubbling water is very beautiful, with even the sound of boiling feeling pleasant.
Since it comes with a heat-resistant glass strainer, after boiling water, you can put in tea leaves and use it as a teapot as well.
Enjoying the transparency with your eyes
One of the unique charms of glassware is its transparency that allows you to see inside. It enriches tea time not only through taste but also visually, with the color of herbal tea and the way the tea leaves unfold.
Also, since the glass is resistant to odors and color transfer, it is easy to clean and can be kept hygienic for a long time, which is another great point.
Tradition and beauty passed down
Heat-resistant glass "Jena glass" was developed in Jena, Germany in 1920. Although the original manufacturer has ceased production, Trendglas-Jena, which inherited the design, molds, and equipment, continues production while maintaining tradition and quality.
Jena glass has been loved throughout a long history. Not only its beautiful appearance but also the quality backed by years can be trusted. It is a product you can confidently choose as a daily tool.
Subtle care even in the details
Usage instructions are written in English and German on the side of the pot. While reflecting the functionality typical of overseas products, the gentle font resembling handwriting adds a warm atmosphere.
The spout is designed to prevent water from dripping, making it easy to pour and user-friendly.
When heating for the first time, you might feel a little nervous about whether it will crack. However, it is, of course, suitable for direct fire.
The flickering flame visible through the glass and water, and the beauty of the slowly boiling bubbles. Watching this scene, even the time it takes for the water to boil becomes a calming moment.

Please be careful of sudden boiling
When heating liquids such as drinks, regardless of the heating appliance (microwave, gas stove, IH cooking heater, etc.), a phenomenon called "sudden boiling" may occur, where boiling happens suddenly and the contents splash out.
"Sudden boiling" does not always occur; it happens only when a combination of conditions such as food, dishes or pots, cooking utensils, and heating time coincide.
Glass has a very smooth surface, making it a material prone to sudden boiling. Also, if the container breaks due to the impact of sudden boiling, there is a risk of injury from shards, so please be very careful.
- What is sudden boiling
- When heating a liquid, it sometimes reaches the boiling point (100°C for water) but does not boil. This is called a superheated state. If some stimulus or vibration is applied to this superheated liquid, it suddenly boils explosively and the contents splash out. This phenomenon is called "sudden boiling."
- Factors that make sudden boiling likely
- When there is little dissolved gas in the liquid: such as reheating water or tea that has been boiled once. When the liquid is thick: such as miso soup, milk, soy milk, curry, etc.
When heating in a container without irregularities inside: such as a glass cup, a mug with a smooth surface, or a pot polished to a shine.
When heating quietly: such as in a microwave without a turntable.
- To prevent sudden boiling
- Do not overheat.
If you think you have overheated in the microwave, let it cool for 2-3 minutes before opening the door.
When heating on a gas stove or similar, please stir while heating. Reference: Information on Sudden Boiling from the Consumer Affairs Center (external link)
