Frequently Asked Questions

What makes these cozies “Space-Age”?

• Through a carefully engineered proprietary combination of high tech and traditional materials we have achieved a low bulk profile with excellent heat retention capabilities. When the cozy is properly seated on the table, tea will still be approximately 130 - 160º F for up to 2 hours (depending on your pot).

Can I wash my teapot cozy?

• Due to the delicate nature of embroidered fabrics and the inner structure of the cozy, washing by hand or machine is NOT recommended. See our Product Care here

How do I know what size cozy to buy?

• Measure your teapot from the tip of the spout to the widest point on the handle and from the top of the lid handle to the base of the pot. Refer to our Size Guide to determine which is best.  If your teapot has a particularly wide “belly”, you may want to go up a size.

Why is the bottom of the cozy curved?

• To maximize heat retention! Our cozies have been precisely engineered to allow the flat fabric to wrap around the curved teapot while hugging the table to keep cold air out.

Will using a cozy make my tea too strong?

• Nobody wants to stew their tea! When making a pot of tea, whether you use a cozy or not, we always recommend removing the tea leaves or tea bags once it has steeped to your desired strength.  After removing the tea from the water, your cozy will maintain an appropriate sipping temperature without altering the flavor of the tea.
