A CUP cozy is literally for a standard mug or a very small teapot. There is only one bird on each side as the print is on the large side. This is a Medium Large version of William Morris’s Strawberry Thief print, from William Morris Studios in soft gray on eggshell white. I love this print, & seem to collect it as I have a number of color varieties in the shop. I center the print carefully front & back & line it in coordinating cotton ticking to add that extra panache of utter Englishness. I watch the birds eating berries in my brother’s garden in Nottinghamshire, & in the autumn they get drunk on the alcoholized fruit! Make sure you select the right size cozy for your teapot. Measure from farthest points carefully, tip of handle to tip of spout & then refer to the size chart that will direct you to the right size cozy for your pot. Having lived almost half my life in England, I often visited the Victoria & Albert Museum textile collection, studying the beautiful fabrics & wall paper archives. I love everything about this print, & cherish memories of my mum taking me to Liberty’s as a child to buy me smocked dresses made from prints just like this & taking me to lunch or tea at Fortnum & Mason, a tradition I have carried over with my own child. The cozy has a little strawberry velvet pull on top in traditional tea cozy fashion. Tea Cozies are an indispensable item for anyone English, for tea gourmands, & this one especially for lovers of art nouveau style. Hand wash advisable, line dry & press under a tea towel. This makes a reasonable & perfect gift. I had the chance, when I was about 22, to live in the studio cottage of William Morris, & do I regret turning it down. The trouble was, it was on the other side of London & in those days took forever to get from one part of town to another.
