Re: Gibpat Metro Crown Lynn NZ
I recently read on Trademe that Crown Lynn bought Gibpat in 1968 and their name was added to the backstamp.......
GIBPAT Metro

Gibpat Metro
This comes from a dinner plate. Also on the lidded sugar bowl

Re: Gibpat Metro Crown Lynn NZ
A Metro dessert bowl that I found recently.
Can't see a number for this vitrified bowl and it is 181mm across.
Can anyone help find the number for this please?
As this appears to be a whole range of vitrified ware, I'm surprised at how little there is around, even though gloworm says it's quite common, this is the first piece that I have ever found and it doesn't even look used.

The Metro Rimmed Oatmeal above is shape 4655
and also was recorded as a Cereal/Soup Dish.
I love it when I trip over the answer to unanswered questions
