CLASSIC BROWN TEAPOT A remake of a vintage design, Know & Love’s stubby spout, dimpled teapot is endlessly charming and perfect for a retro cottage feel. At 14cm diameter (and 15.5cm tall), it’ll hold a nice drop of brew, and is safe to pop in the dishwasher too.

MOUNTAIN & MOLEHILL LAMPSHADE

Create the perfect cosy cottage ambience while striking a stylish note with Mountain & Molehill’s playful collection of lampshades. Eye- catching prints include bears and owls, but we have a soft spot for the dodos. Using collaged Victorian illustrations, these quirky shades are made to order on fine art paper and finished off with hand-applied gold detail. £65, mountainandmolehill.com

CHICAGO COFFEE TABLE NATURAL

No cottage would ever be complete without a central coffee table, but that doesn’t mean it has to dominate the space. The solid mango wood Chicago table is perfect, offering enough space for you and your family to gather around for board games and snacks, or you could artfully dress it with your best natureinspired coffee table books. £199.99, homescapesonline.com
