Willow d697 and Willow Pattern 140

I knew for sure that this pattern was in the Gallery and I only look for patterns that we don't have.
But these were so beautiful, crisp and clean and unused and were begging to be rescued.
I told myself that they would look great in the plate display on the crockery cupboard
How righteous do I feel now, as I can't find this pattern in the Gallery hahahaaa
This is my favourite Willow pattern ...





Someone stole my whiteboard that I stood pottery on to photograph .... !!
Hmmmmm I see the boat has a flash new white bait board ...

Willow 697 and Willow Pattern 140
These 2 patterns are the same but the colour varies. The back-stamp is also different.

Wow that is unusual indeed. Let me help turn it around.

I couldn't find Willow Pat.No.140 in the Gallery the other day, so took a photo today when I saw it in the Hospice shop. However now we have a photo so I don't have to load it. Thank you Janice

Haha... I was looking at pattern when I noticed we didn't have it.
What a coincidence! !!
What did they have? Just curious. .

They had 7 pieces for $50 - 3 dinner plates, 2 side plates and 2 bowls.
They also had some d697 Willow and it wasn't as expensive.
Actually it's the first time I've seen the lighter one.

I like the 140 colour best... I have a saucer ....somewhere lol 50 buks seems pricey ...may have been tempted...
I have a couple of dishes and plates of the 697 colour..
