Time for Tea: Our Pick of the Pots

We don’t know about you, but we think it’s always a good time for tea here at Make It Shabby HQ. You can’t beat a nice, hot cuppa straight from the pot! The question we’d like answered is, to dunk or not to dunk? Are you a dunker or a don’ter? Let us know in the comments!

In the meantime, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite teapots for our favourite brew. Which takes your fancy?

This stoneware teapot is perfect for the retro enthusiast. Designed by Lotta Odelius for Sagaform, it’s reminiscent of the teapot Granny used to use. The Sagaform Retro Teapot is available from Twinings Teashop. Use the code AF25NOV at checkout for 25% off compartment boxes.

 

Savour some me-time with this delightful Tea-For-One set. Comprising a teapot, teacup and saucer in fine bone china, you need not wait for company to call before enjoying elevenses in style. The Hydrangea Tea-For-One set is available from Laura Ashley, normally priced at £28.00 but currently on offer for just £19.80.

 

If you’re a fan of iconic designs and tea, you’ll be thrilled to add this Vintage Kelloggs Teapot to your kitchen. Not only does it show off the classic, vibrant design of yesteryear, but its 2 pint capacity means there’s enough tea for the whole family! The Vintage Kelloggs Teapot (and other items from the same Portmeirion collection) is available from The Brilliant Gift Shop, priced at £25.00.

 

We think that this is the perfect present for the forgetful cupcake lover. Not only is it adorned with colourful cupcakes for them to drool over, but you can also personalise it with a message so that they’ll never, ever forget who gave them their fabulous gift! Buy the Personalised Cupcake Teapot from Find Me A Gift (£24.99).

 

 

Our final pick is this sleek, simple, design created by ceramic designer Masa Fujii. Coming complete with an extra fine infuser, the White Curved Teapot (£45), from Whittard of Chelsea brings a dash of understated elegance to your tea-time table.
