That's an Alessi kettle. You can tell by the stopper and the handle, if not the general design of the kettle basin itself.

My ladyfriend has a sewing machine as well and we both plan to learn how to use it this summer for alterations at minimum, and I'm actually hoping I can learn to make a shirt. Plenty of old ones laying around that I can reverse engineer

I wonder whether the cost/availability of fabric makes that pursuit worthwhile, though.

be prepared to rip stitches and resew again and again, like i said patience.

^^this... On the first few pants/shirts I've done I probably ripped 3x as many stitches as I kept. So be careful. I have a hole in a pair of pants and in a shirt where I was trying to run the ripper down the length of the stitch and it got caught in the fabric giving me a hole.

Somehow, I just knew I should have asked about the pot, instead.
