'Homemaker' china pattern

15 years ago

I recently aquired a few pieces of this wonderful retro 50s pattern. I've done some research on the net and found it isn't very common outside of the UK. Does anyone else collect this stuff? Is it highly collectable?

It is a Ridgeway pattern. VERY attractive, white background with a squiggly black line and "drawings" of household furnishings of the era. The tea cups are very plain and solid black in color.

Interesting pattern. Replacements doesn't have any for sale so I can't judge if it's collectible or not. Have you checked on ebay?
