There was a story of the Michael Graves Design Bells and Whistles Stainless Steel Tea Kettle that was sold by JCPenney back in 2013.
It definitely became a viral sensation, often called the “Hitler teapot,” because people on social media (especially Reddit) pointed out its perceived resemblance to Adolf Hitler.
The resemblance was noted in a few key design elements:
- The black handle and the lid’s black knob were thought to look like his parted hairstyle and toothbrush mustache.
- The spout was sometimes interpreted to resemble a raised arm giving a Nazi salute.
JCPenney removed the billboard advertising the product and insisted that any resemblance was entirely unintentional, tweeting that if they had designed the kettle to look like something, it would have been a snowman! It’s often cited as a famous example of pareidolia, which is the psychological phenomenon of seeing patterns or images in random stimuli.
The whole controversy actually caused the $40 kettle to sell out and later appear on eBay for much higher prices.
