I hit the Crown Lynn Jackpot the other day at the op shop down the road....
(Sallies 5-x Roads)
I found a kitsch Pasifika basket in which to carry my stash home... (new picnic basket)
 |
| Here's my stash..It was mostly $1 per piece. |
 |
| Pretty jug.. ( maybe $2- I forget) |
 |
| Royal Kitsch ($2.50) |
 |
| COLOUR GLAZE (common name for a few lines of Crown Lynn) This stuff is very desirable, especially the pink. |
 |
| This looks like an early piece.. (there were a few early-looking saucers) I love the detail on the edges. |
 |
| I have recently found the wonderful blog of Valerie Monk (thank you Indigo Violet!), who wrote the Crown Lynn bible.. She posted about Colour Glaze here.. #crownlynnrulz4eva Happy Days! Linked up to The Nifty Thrifty @ A Living Space Apron Thrift Girl |

Good finds, they are very pretty, and so is that basket. xxx
This is a lovely lovely blog, what interesting purchases! I have never seen the Prince William Crown Lynn mug before, that's a real find. Take care. ValM
I adore the basket - it is so gorgeous. I wish someone could teach me to make one like that. You found some great CL pieces - well done.
Oh lord the basket!!!!!!!! And what a perfect possie for placing your glorious new treasures ... yes, the pink is divoooon and can you imagine what that royal mug might fetch now that Will's about to become a daddy? xoxo
oh love it, especially that pink...I have so far managed to only find 3 crown lynn cups in my time..so I am well impressed!
Wow!! Nice score - I love the pink. I dream about owning scores of Crown Lynn colour glaze and so far haven't ever come across any. You must be so happy!!
I love to see what others find in other countries--so cool to see!
That basket is SO COOL! I've never seen anything like it here. Jealous! ;)
