Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
This range was made in 1980 and is recorded as "Classic" in the Crown Lynn Stoneware records and cover all of the shapes made in the Aurora patterns.
The House of Reps Pattern number 913 is from 1980 so I will add that number to the photo in the Gallery.
The bowl of Marl's above shows up in the records as:
4805 - "Classic" Cereal - Soup 6 3/4" first made 22.5.80.

House of Representatives Gravy Boat
This is made of Stoneware clay and rings like a bell when tapped with a fingernail just like Stoneware should.
This was first made on 23.9 80 and the groovy handle is such a give away for that era
I saw some of this ware when I visited the Beehive with Heather when we went to Wellington to see the Crown Lynn Exhibition in 2011. There were a couple of Crown Lynn patterns on display from the past.
This House of Reps ware is hardly ever seen on TradeMe and I feel extremely lucky to get this piece!

House of Reps 3803 Stoneware Ashtray
So much smaller than I imagined, but so beautifully made.
Made on the Semi-Automatic, whatever that means in 1981.
My heart now belongs to Crown Lynn's Stoneware, as it is the very best ware that they made in my opinion.

A House of Reps 4802 Salad Plate 8 1/4" first made 22.5.80.
I worship this stoneware as it's thin but so strong and feels wonderful to the touch.

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
I am quickly building up a set of this fabulous dinnerware for our own use.
Today I got 12 x Saucers, 12 x Bread & Butters, a lidded sugar and a salt & pepper.
There is more to come from this trader including lunch plates, dinner plates and cocktail dishes and hopefully a cream jug.

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
Went to an Antique Fair today and got the 12 inch Chop Plate and one mug, both of these are in the photo of the Beehive above.
Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
8800 Classic Chop Plate 12"
3801 Classic Coffee Cup 1981 or 1808 Classic Coffee Mug 23.9.80
I need help to work out which one this is please!!
This is a small sized cup really as it doesn't seem big enough to be called a mug.
It's more along the lines of a Demitasse, but a little bigger.
Now I've talked myself into it being the 3801 Coffee Cup
The Coffee Cup and Saucer look great together
Making amazingly fast progress with this set, but I'm still looking for -
Dinner Plates,
Cups,
Mugs,
Bowls,
3050 Mug in this clay and pattern
Vegie Bowl and Lid
Gravy Boat Stand
Butter dish
Coffee Pot
Teapot
Cocktail Dishes
Mustard Pot
Rimmed Fruit dishes
Rimmed Cereal dishes
Vegie Bowl
Casserole
Oval Plate 13"
Jug
Please contact me if you find any of these in your travels

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
Ev... I would agree that's its a 3801- Reason...I just spent ages looking at the museum notes.
Notes say that....3800 and 3801 are different shaped handles, and the leaflet above is from 1981 and features your recent cup, which makes sense (to me it makes sense!)
so 'Classic Coffee Mug 23.9.80',must be a bigger version as mugs usually are. maybe with that weird shape handle from "1809 "Classic" Gravy Boat " ??
You are doing well sourcing this range !

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
Yes, I already have 12 side plates from this unpredictable, hard to contact, strangely odd trader. She seems to have mountains of some of these pieces and talks about listing the whole set once they have all "come in" ...? I am keeping an eye on her listings and will pick up 12 lunch plates tomorrow that I won recently.

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
I wonder if that is the Wild Wheat jug ?
This is the House of Reps jug ---
Same shape but without the wheat pattern. It would certainly do until I can source the one with a pattern. It's beautiful stoneware Kat ..... gorgeous!

3803 Stoneware Ashtray with the NZ Coat of Arms
Yesterday I got another House of Reps ashtray at the Antique Fair. I have seen this for several years now and yesterday I weakened and paid a princely sum for it, thanks to Swapmeet sales.
Lucky that I did, because while looking for the number I came across new info from the Portage Museum. I realised that this one doesn't have clips, which are the places to put ciggies and is the Shape 3803 Stoneware Ashtray without clips and the ashtray that I had put into the Shapes Gallery does have these clips. So another correction, which is great as fine tuning will continue until we get it right.
Bugger me that I can't find a number for the one above that has clips now!!!
I adore the Coat of Arms on this one, but can't imagine wanting to use it for an ashtray and stubbing out butts on it.

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
Found this pattern in a 1989 Stocktake and there were all of these shape numbers.
The pattern number is d59900 and I have changed the number in the Gallery.
There are two other House of Reps patterns, but they haven't been identified yet.
We probably have them on the site, but don't have the info to establish which goes with what number .... yet.

Re: NZ House of Representatives Crown Lynn Dinnerware
Yes all of the Badged Ware have pattern numbers.
I know we have a piece of your House of Reps that is different to this pattern Jeremy, just don't know which one it is .....
