Cork Coasters Made for Tea Cups
These round cork coasters are designed specifically for tea cups and small mugs. Made from natural cork, they absorb moisture, protect your surfaces from heat and rings, and stay put without scratching. Lightweight and easy to wipe clean, they work on wood, marble, glass, and most tabletop surfaces. Mind you, they are sized for tea cups, not oversized mugs or dinner plates. A practical, no-fuss addition to any tea corner.
The Benefit
No More Rings on Your Favorite Table
You know that little sigh when you lift your tea cup and find a perfect wet ring on the wood? Well now, that stops here. These natural cork coasters sit quietly under your cup, soaking up every drop and keeping the heat right where it belongs. Nothing fancy, nothing fussy. Just the small, solid comfort of a table that stays beautiful while you enjoy your brew in peace.
Product Details
Natural Cork, Honest and Straightforward
Cork is one of those materials that just makes sense, believe me. It grips the table without scratching, absorbs moisture before it becomes a problem, and handles heat without complaint. These coasters are round, sized right for a tea cup, and light enough to stack neatly when not in use. No synthetic coating, no chemical smell. Just natural cork doing exactly what it has always done best, quietly and reliably.
In Use
Your Morning Cup, Perfectly at Home
Picture this: your kettle has just whistled, your favorite loose-leaf is steeping, and you set your cup down on one of these little cork coasters without a second thought. The coaster stays put, the table stays dry, and you get to sit there with both hands wrapped around your cup, fully present. That is the whole point, honey. A good cup of tea deserves a proper landing spot.
Everyday Proof
Cork Coasters That Actually Stay Put
Between you and me, the coasters that slide around the table are more annoying than no coaster at all. Cork grips. It does not skid when you set your cup down in a hurry, and it does not stick to the bottom of the cup when you pick it back up. Wipe it clean, stack it, use it again. Morning after morning, it just works. That is the kind of thing you only notice when it is missing.

FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
Are these coasters the right size for a standard tea cup?
Yes, these cork coasters are designed specifically for tea cups and small mugs. They are sized to fit that footprint well. If you use very large mugs or oversized cups, they may not cover the full base, so keep that in mind before ordering.
Will the cork scratch my table or leave marks?
Natural cork is gentle on surfaces. It grips without scratching and does not leave residue. It works on wood, marble, glass, and most common tabletop materials. That is actually one of the reasons cork has been used for this purpose for such a long time.
How do I clean these cork coasters?
A simple wipe with a damp cloth is all they need. Cork is naturally moisture-resistant enough for everyday tea use. Avoid soaking them in water or putting them in the dishwasher, as that can break down the material over time and shorten their life.
Will the coaster stick to the bottom of my cup when I lift it?
Cork grips the table, not the cup. In normal use, the coaster stays on the table when you pick up your cup. That non-slip quality goes both ways, which is one of the practical reasons cork works so well as a coaster material.
How many coasters come in a set?
The exact quantity is listed in the product details on the page. Do check that before adding to your cart, especially if you are buying for a full tea tray or as a gift. That way you know exactly what arrives when the package lands on your doorstep.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
