Re: Santos Pat. No. 503
That is interesting, have not seen that Philippines backstamp before and it's on a direct (tho rough and ready) copy of a NZ pattern.

Re: Santos Pat. No. 503
So far as I can gather there was no heritage of this sort of domestic pottery in the Philippines so the workers were all learning from scratch - and also they were experimenting with different types of clay body etc.. and it shows! You have a wee treasure there.

Re: Santos Pat. No. 503
I found today, two Santos plates like the ones above. Light olive green and light teal blue they are. They were in the stack together so I wondered if Santos was one of those designs that each place setting was a different colour?

Re: Santos Pat. No. 503
Hi Thelma.. I didn't know that they did that. Interesting thought though, would explain why they are all different colours and have the same design name.
Did they have the word "Santos" or just the number?

Re: Santos Pat. No. 503
Fi sent a photo of her Orange Santos to the site and says that she has three colours in this pattern and they all have the same pattern number on the base.
Incidentally I came across this pattern at the Museum last week in an advert in the Herald from 1970 and it cost $5.95 for an 18 piece set, no mention of colours and the pic was in black and white.
