Great News! Devotea.com is now offering replacement lids for the current generation of Chatsford teapots (production starting around the year 2000). They have lids in most of the available sizes and colors, though not all. 
The lids are recovered from teapots that were defective or damaged in shipment, since, like most manufacturers, this manufacturer does not produce extra lids. This means the replacement lids may not be perfect either, but they’re less costly than buying a new teapot! Prices vary with the size of the lid.
