Title: surely a Whitefriars bowl, unless anyone knows different!
Post by: Andy on February 22, 2007, 02:56:56 PM

Im convinced this is a whitefriars bowl! Famous last words :)
Cinnamon colour, 11 1/2" x 9 1/2" Oval eggy shape, fairly shallow.
I cant quite find one im entirely happy with  in the WF catalogues though :-\

Looks Whitefriars pattern no: 9961 catalogued as 11 inches long - helf an inch more or less is OK for a bowl of this type. Cinnamon 1969. Emmi

Thanks Emmi,
I checked up to 1965 catalogues, missed the 1969 one! It looks right to me ;D
(i think its 9661 but thx for your help!)
