Re: Apollo cup on Forma saucer for the gallery
Hmmmm, Marl posted Radiance, which is in the Forma shape -

but as your cup is in the Apollo shape perhaps it has a different pattern name ????
Or maybe the cup is from another set?

Re: Apollo cup on Forma saucer for the gallery
More CL mystery. The Cup and saucer that I have are a definite match as far as colour is concerned. Thanks for the reference to Radiance and Frisco Brown ,a similar pattern
but different colour and style without the outer wide band.
I have a theory that some of these Apollo variations were produced to get rid of large surplus stocks of Apollo pieces in bisque near to the end of CL .
The use of an Apollo cup on a Forma saucer was only possible because of the clever design of the docking ring on Forma saucers which would accept both type of cups. A Forma cup will dock more positively but both work.
