Checked pattern is called Gingham !!
I am after more information AND PIECES of this pattern and Colours. (see picture on my profile) I have some yellow,blue, brown, maroon?red checked plates mainly but a couple of cups and 1 yellow jug, . I received a few pieces that my grandmother had in her beach house....brought late 1930's into 1940's????. Any info most welcome. The mark is a crown over a curved Crown Lynn with New Zealand under that. All the books I have seen have not displayed it nor I have seen it in the galleries......

Hi Harry,
Further to Ev's comments, did you take a look in the gallery on page two where we have backstamps and stickers? There is a backstamp as you describe which dates after 1955. Crown Lynn was known as Ambrico in the 40s so your plates must be later than you think..take a look and tell us what you think.

Re: Checked pattern is called Gingham !!
Here is a link to the auction on trademe Harry -
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=242430834&permanent=0
I have asked the seller what the backstamp is.
Though from the listing heading I guess it says Roydon
which is one of the brands that Crown Lynn used.

"Hi, roydon table ware acid & detergent resistant colours, gingham pat no 406, I hope this helps"

Re: Checked pattern is called Gingham !!
Thank you Harry!
I would like to use one of your pics for the main site photo please - as they are stunning and unusual.
I will put them into the Tableware gallery even though we don't have a pattern name.
All of the photos that I use will be credited to you, as you own the copyright.
Harry - Manos who is auctioning the plates knows a lot about Crown Lynn - you could ask him what he knows about them.

Re: Checked pattern is called Gingham !!
Great to see those plates will be going to a good home!! The early 1940s crockery set was called "Paris". I guess these may have been one of the first patterned ones? The backstamp is abit of an enigma though...

Re: Checked pattern is called Gingham !!
Many thanks once again. I secured the last lot of yellows and hope to get these.....what an addiction these have become Last weekend at the Waipu Antiques fair my wife spotted a blue saucer. Quite exciting finding ONE item amongst all that was on sale. Also picked up a cup to match one of my existing saucers. Now I need a cabinet to display it all...and then a larger house to put the cabinet in!!!
