I will , but everything is boxed up ATM as I am in the process of having a cabinet built - so I might not be able to find them that fast....

Do you have an Autumn Splendour one coming that you can measure?

Are you watching my TM listings LOL-- I have but I was not convinced that they were jumbo as ( at first glance) seem to be the same size as a 805, the well is bigger thats all I could see different. I will look again, may get Thursday/Friday as I won't get a chance before then.

I haven't been stalking you as such!

Once I saw what your trademe name was I had a look through your feedbacks to see what you'd been buying. As far as I know feedbacks are the only way on trademe to see what others have bought, or sold.

I'll be interested to hear about the Mayfair saucer too: a jumbo vit suggests a 4635 but it doesn't look like a 4635.

There was a time on eBay when you could look through what your competitors were bidding on as the auctions were still running but they changed that along with a whole lot of other privacy provisions.

Just to confirm that this cup shape is 3016 and the saucer is 4017 and I'm putting your saucer into the Gallery Marl cheers

I know it's a Breakfast cup because of this diagram -

The only references to a Breakfast cup are these entries -

802 - Breakfast Cup - Earthenware
832 - Breakfast Cup - Earthenware
3016 - same as 3613 (Father's) Earthenware -first made 14.7.65
3613 - Breakfast Cup as 3016 Vitrified - first made 6.12.65

So I'm leaning towards this shape to be probably 832 in three digits and 3016 in Earthenware and 3613 in Vitrified ware ....... which only helps to eliminate another shape while trying to find the Jumbo shape

Ev,
If you are happy with Portage's decision on 802 then we have a photo for the gallery.

Hi Jeremy, I want to confirm those numbers now that I have access to the records. I spied this shape somewhere this week, but didn't see the number.
I'm sure I will. I am on the lookout for several cup shapes.

Ev Fri 8 May - 9:27

Yay !!! This shape has now been confirmed as an 802 cheers

I just checked the measurements for my recently acquired Fleurette 744 saucer, from the 1960s against my 1950s Firsta Gaye, the first holding a new 802 and the second with an old 802, and against a Fleurette jumbo cup saucer 4017.
The 744s from different decades have saucers of the same diameter but the later one is slightly heavier, sturdier. The diameters are closer to 157mm than 156.
The jumbo saucer 4017 is just 150mm, significantly smaller.
