Trying to find power lead for old kettle

I have a lovely old copper electric kettle, but I cannot find the power lead to suit it for sale anywhere.
Does anyone know where it may be possible to buy these leads or even just the plug to fit the socket on the back of the kettle?
Thanks in advance!

Looks like a Swan kettle connector, I've tried searching ebay but not come up with anything. No. 15 here.A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0

You might find one, but only second hand.
The BS for these has been withdrawn.
The element probably doesn't work anyway!British Ex-pat in British Columbia!0 -
Thanks for the replies.
The element is certainly giving electrical continuity when I checked it on my multimeter.
Anyone know who has a box of old kettle leads for sale anywhere???

Do you have any old style electrical/hardware shops near you, they might have one.
Also try Freegle and you local car boot.
(I have seen these connectors used internally on old carpet cleaning machines, too.)0 -
Thanks
If you do, I will happily buy it from you, if you don't need it! Let me know.
I have a box full of old cables etc but nothing to fit your kettle. My memory was confusing a 2 pin European style plug with what you need.
I'm sorry to disappoint you. I hope you find the right item.0 -
OK.
Anyone else seen these for sale anywhere?0
