Teapot Cosy shape c1920s
This is a rare shape of teapot made by Wood & Sons to a patented design registered by Abram Allware Ltd. Abram obtained patents for their teapots in 1922-25 and the Cosy name was also a registered trade mark. Apart from the shape of the pot, the novel features appear to be the fixing of the lid on the pot and the design of the gate, which is integral to the lid. The printed backstamp is mainly taken up with the registration and patent details for Britain, USA and Canada. This pot is in excellent condition.
