Mug 1043 Shipping Corp Crown Lynn

Hi Ev, this mug 1043 which is on the first page of the site with blue and red Koru marking is actually from the Shipping Corporation of New Zealand. My husband is an ex ships officer and recognised the logo. He has a mug with the same marking by Richmond Pottery. Cheers, marl

The 1043 post is here: http://newzealandpottery.forumotion.net/t501-air-nz-cup-1043-from-john

That mug didn't fit into the Gallery ... it stood out like a sore thumb, so I will delete it for now.
Crikey did Richmond Potteries number their ware too

I am sure this is a Crown Lynn mug, the one we have has the same logo, but is a Richmond one, different shape. I have seen CL mugs in this shape. Please put it back, sorry if I confused you, cheers, marl

I found this pic in my mug files. Just to show that the shape is a CL one. Cheers, marl Just noticed this pattern is not in the Gallery. This pic was taken from FB so I will put one of mine up for the gallery. You must be getting sick of me!! Cheers, marl

Not getting sick of you at all Marl !
Very grateful to have someone who cares about Crown Lynn Tableware on here
I will leave it where it is and change the title to Shipping Corp .... ok?

sounds good to me, cheers, marl

In the process of getting my files and photos back in order I noticed that the 1043 mug that is my must have mug for my morning cuppa (or 2 or 3) as presently shown in the gallery is a Shipping Corp version. Doesn't seem to do the lovely sensous shape justice . This version may be considered more suitable.

Thanks Jonno, perhaps I should put the 1043 in the Gallery into the Monogrammed section.

Many thanks, had asked the other day on the Q and A page about this emblem, and the shape I hadn't recognised only to find another one in a speckled dark mustard colour which I haven't seen in CL before. Am i to believe it is, based on the numbering being the same?? They really are a lovely shape!

Yes it's Crown Lynn Shape 1043 and the logo is that of the Shipping Corporation.

You can see the shape and number in the Crown Lynn Four Digit Gallery
