This beautiful linen tea cosy is lined with soft natural cotton calico and well padded to keep your pot warm. Perfect for a family-sized teapot, this handmade piece combines practicality with coastal charm—ideal for keeping tea hot during leisurely afternoon gatherings.
Hand made by a small team of skilled artisans in our Cornish studios, each tea cosy is a one-of-a-kind addition to your kitchen.
A little tea history: Although tea arrived in Britain in the 1660s, the tea cosy wasn't documented until 1867. The Duchess of Bedford's establishment of afternoon tea in 1840 likely sparked its popularity—a time for socialising, gossip, and keeping teapots warm during lengthy gatherings. Tea cosies flourished during the late 19th century, becoming a staple in British households as Victorians embraced decorating and adorning everyday objects. Your cosy carries on that tradition of comfort and conversation. Perfect for gifting or treating yourself to a moment of everyday luxury.
About the Collection:
We wanted to do something a little different with our Check Collection, stepping away from our hand-drawn prints to celebrate the beauty of woven texture. Inspired by the simple, classic patterns found in traditional homes, this collection is all about balance and timeless style. This woven check gives a lovely soft feel that gets better with age. It is a truly versatile design that looks just as beautiful in a modern city apartment as it does in a rustic country cottage. Each piece is carefully sewn in our Cornish studio. We love how this collection brings a fresh, clean look to the home, making it a perfect choice for simple, everyday living.
