We know that a lot of Heart to Home customers love a proper cup of tea from a proper china tea pot, but if you're a seasoned tea pot user, you'll know that the pot must be kept insulated while the tea is brewing inside. And what more appropriate design could you think of for a tea cosy than these hens, whose whole working life is spent keeping things warm?

You'd be forgiven for thinking that all these chickens are identical but that's typical of designer Sophie Allport's masterful hand and cheeky sense of humour. Look very closely and you'll see that they're all looking in different directions - some casting a suspicious eye behind them as they trot along, others looking up the row of chickens above or below. Keep looking and you may even spot a few more differences. And while you're at it, take a look at those white dots sprinkled all around against the hazy blue-grey background. Those aren't polka dots - they're eggs, of course.
