Helicopter flowers is called April d895
This one is quite pretty and I don't think we have it in the gallery. Maybe a plate would have the name.

Avondale Selection Buttercups?
Awful backstamp on this one but pretty sure it's avondale selection/fine tableware, with (possibly) buttercups and (!!!) just realised these are the same as Glenys's helicopter flowers!

maybe someone could move it into the 'Helicopter flowers topic'

Re: Helicopter flowers is called April d895
This really looks familiar now that I see the yellow flowers ...... I will have to check out all of the patterns to see if we have it. In the meantime I will replace the saucer with your plate Cat.
Re: Helicopter flowers is called April d895
Fabulous! I love to see plates that match saucers and cups that match as well. It all makes for 'sets' in my mind. I must have been in primary school when 'sets' were popular in maths! (OMG I think it was my children!)

Re: Helicopter flowers is called April d895
Well, I finally got in to the red cross shop, and after having my ear talked off by the lady at the counter (whom I know from way back, but she does go on, lol!) I got a photo of the trio, which really does look lovely!

Re: Helicopter flowers is called April d895
I know CL did lots of mix n match. I did it when I bought stuff but I'm sure they always had matching cups and saucers with plates and this is a good example. A lemon colour glaze would have gone well with this set but the original is best.
Thanks Glenys
Thanks Glenys

Re: Helicopter flowers is called April d895
Thanks to Te Toi Uku and Paul Schoones son of Janet Schoones who was a designer at Crown Lynn, we now know that this pattern was designed by Janet Schoones and the original had blue 'helicopter' flowers and yellow flowers.
