What Colour Is This Kettle?

[MrHoss]

My wife found this on Martha Stewart's facebook page and tagged me. I do not know what colour that is.....

Not sure......strange Slate, 3-wheeler?

All the stars get special colours.....

Hey Look! Rachael has an orange like you, @1buckie!

Yeah, too bad I'm fat & ugly or I'd have a TV show !!!!

The magazine cover is surely a Photoshop creation but the other image is odd. Not light enough to be the Gray we know; more like the Charcoal color of Euro models. But that image is a stop or two underexposed and contrasty, so who knows the real shade.

Looks brown..and in mint condition...

Looks like a daisy wheeler to me...

Yep I'm going with chocolate based on it being the only colour that's close  from that era of kettles

[1buckie]

It's Sepia, you guys......& Martha's got THE only one.......
She's special.....longest hotdog, etc........




Look at the white on the wheel of the gasser....and the wood.....it's not so processed or "off" as to make a Brownie look like that......just an opinion, but I think it's special......

[Hogsy]

Grey or faded black??
Only one bowl handle....what era did they start making them like that?
It almost looks like red on the underside of the metal part of the lid handle.

Yes. Everything looks right but for the colour of that Kettle. Damn thing looks olive green to me. Probably sitting unused on one of Martha's properties beside a bunch of other stuff she got comp'd.

I heard she made it.  In prison.

That looks like a "lighting job" or color edit effect of a 90s BAR B KETTLE. Looks cool..
