AGA: New Blue Colour

Published: 02 January 2017

AGA is adding a sumptuous new colour to its range. Dartmouth Blue. It is reminiscent of the sea and looks fantastic in both traditional and contemporary kitchens…  

Blues – particularly denim hues – are big news at the moment, with many trends consultants predicting they will be the hot shades for this year. So it isn’t a huge coincidence that AGA have chosen a beautiful rich blue as the latest AGA colour. AGA cookers are well known for their longevity, and new colours are chosen on the basis of what will be great and loved in years or decades to come.  

The new shade – Dartmouth Blue – is just one of those shades: contemporary but classic and designed not to date, it looks fantastic in a host of settings, including both wood and high-gloss kitchens. It is called Dartmouth Blue because it is that beautiful shade you see when the sea meets the sky.  

The new colour is available on the AGA Total Control – which can be on when you need it and off when you don’t – and the AGA Dual Control, which has ovens that are on all the time and hotplates you can switch on and off as you need them. Each comes in 3-oven and 5-oven models with the option of an integrated module. The compact AGA City 60 is also available in Dartmouth Blue and – at just 60cm wide – is ideal for smaller kitchens.  

Every AGA cooker is manufactured by skilled craftsmen and every one of the 15 stunning colours in our collection is achieved through multiple coats of vitreous enamel. It is this process that helps provide the depth of colour and the stunning finish for which the AGA cooker is renowned.  

Recognised as the world's best cooking appliance, the AGA commands a level of adulation more often associated with the glitz of Hollywood fame -- and generates similar devotion. It's deemed the number one luxury appliance brand and revered as one of the top three design icons of the century. It's the kitchen centrepiece of Celebrities, Professional Chefs and Homeowners across the globe. AGA represents a lifestyle, one that owners embrace and share fervently with others. The simple fact is that the AGA is an amazing cooker – easy to use, a joy to live with and a great addition to any home, and of course it produces great food. It’s a design icon that is as relevant today as it was innovative at the time of its invention.  

The AGA is available in a number of colours and sizes, designed to run on a variety of fuels and can be programmed to suit perfectly the rhythms of your daily life.  

For more information visit www.agaliving.co.za. The full range is available directly from AGA South Africa and a selection from Bergzicht Furnishers, Gas & Equipment, Kloppers, Melvill and Moon, Metelerkamps and cookware range online from takealot.com and available soon through yuppiechef.com.
