It's called Westbury and is made by Denby. I collected it in the 1970s, and still have most of it intact. Unfortunately it went out of production many years ago. Thanks :-). I've a feeling Mum got hold of a few bits of Denby but I can't remember exactly what, or where she got it. She's mainly collecting Hornsea at the moment - she got a nice Hornsea jar with a wooden top, without any chips or cracks; then somebody (not her and not me either!) dropped it the minute we got home... I hate it when things like that happen. Even if she got another perfect jar, the world is still minus one perfect jar overall. Rrrgh. I don't think I'll collect china - too much potential for heartache. |

That's the annoying thing about collecting china, the range only lasts so long and then if you do break anything, you're stuck. At least I'd just about got everything I needed in the Westbury range and was only planning to get a couple of spare plates in each size when I discovered it had been discontinued. I've been pretty careful, but even so, the odd plate has been smashed over the years and some of the jugs have are a little chipped, but considering it's been in use for nearly 30 years remarkably little has been broken beyond repair so far.

Wow, Ann! What an attractive spread! I bet it tasted delicious. Looked like a big success!
