Re: A Number Seven??
This trough that Heather took a photo of thanks to Jim Drummond when he still had his shop doesn't have a number or any backstamps on it. Heather identified it by the glaze and from a sketch of a 7 listing on Trademe which I can no longer find now -

It appears to match perfectly with it's distinctive pointed base which the Crown Lynn records call a V Bottom.
The 6 shape looks very similar, but doesn't have a V Bottom. Does anyone have either a 7 or a 6 shape that is numbered?

This is my horseshoe trough, I bought as a 6, but it is not numbered or marked.

and up-side down, to give another angle. I don't know if it is a 6 or a 7, it is 'V' shaped, but rounded as well.

Re: A Number Seven??
I'm all excited as it looks like a shape 6 to me ......
![A Number Seven?? 610](https://i.servimg.com/u/f82/12/53/23/96/610.jpg)
It is more refined than the 7 ...
There is a ridge along the curve of the trough on the 7 which isn't there on the 6 ...
The 7 has a definite point at the base, whereas the 6 is more rounded ....
the 7 is wider at the ends than the 6.....
It's a 6 as far as I'm concerned .... just need a couple of more votes to put it into the Gallery![cheers](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_cheers.png)

Re: A Number Seven??
As i bought it as a number 6, and it looks just like the museum pic, of course I have to agree also.

Re: A Number Seven??
I happened across measurements for the Shape 7 -
275mm x 130mm
Can you let us know the measurements for the Shape 6 please Sunny?

Another number seven?
![A Number Seven?? Dsc09118](https://i.servimg.com/u/f57/16/31/56/86/dsc09118.jpg)
I have avoided buying this trough for many months now from the local market, but yesterday I gave in, as I had convinced myself it was Crown Lynn, and a number 7. Any thoughts by anyone? The measurements are right, give or take a couple of mm, so that is one thing in its favour, plus the glaze looks very right to me too.
