A Country Fair Shelf
This is my Mum's collection of country fair. Its being sold, but I thought I would share anyway. It makes a nice display.

Re: A Country Fair Shelf
The green glaze colour on the cream jug and herb pots and sugar pot is so different to the others, its like a delicious spearmint green.

Re: A Country Fair Shelf
There seems to be a range of greens and browns, even a metallic black glaze.
Then there is the white and other light colours with transfers on them ....
I wonder if this range was made by Titian before Crown Lynn took them over, as I see quite a bit in the tin white glaze, without any makers marks or numbers. I don't associate the tin white glaze with Crown Lynn, but I do with Titian.

I've not ever come across the white ones, but I was very taken with the black metallic and I really wish they had done the green glaze with the black.

Country Fair glazes
I to have not seen a white as such yet either.
The ones with the Cordon transfers have an oatmeal speckled glaze.
I also have one with the same glaze but no transfer. (Not white.)
Also I have one in graduated grey, much the same as one of the Temuka glazes of the recent past (not sure of the name) except the Crown Lynn reaches pure white at the bottom.
It sits beside the Temuka tea-set as though it belongs.
The three items mentioned above are ALL clearly marked 1275 and MADE IN NEW ZEALAND.
I have seen them also sold as Titian, with "strawberry" transfers.
It's hard to tell from the photo (tm 635789686) whether it's white or oatmeal.
The green over brown glaze varies greatly from one item to another, as I guess it should.
I wonder if the lime colour is in bopmum's photography.
The orange over metallic black glaze is just scary!
Green on black does sound good, but perhaps a bit cold looking, "cool" in both meanings of the word.
(Photoshop anyone?)
I haven't checked it out yet but it looks as though bopmum has supplied photos for just about everything Country Fair for the gallery now. Val may be able to fill any gaps. When that time comes I will provide one for the cover that fits on the rectangular "plate", as I don't think either of them has it.

Mine:
Toni supplied some of the pieces on my shelf, but they just don't look as green with my lighting. Missing from the shelf are the bigger canisters. There just isn't room. And the teapots are on my teapot shelf.
The only "apparent" duplicate in the display is salt and pepper. I have two mugs but the other is with my castware mugs display.
I have most of the items that have been crossed off the list below.
