A hard to find square dish from the "Impact" range (1964/5).

Some items on the auction table at yesterday's collector's meeting.

Rare Dog-in-kennel cruets designed by Colin Rawson 1955.

One has to separate the tableware from the decorative/collectable items.
Contrast is in the V&A, won all the design awards, it was very popular,
and produced for many years. There's still a healthy replacement market for it.
The earlier tableware ranges, like Saffron, are getting old now, and craze terribly.

When Hornea produced these items they had to get special permission from the post office and the bank of england,
to use the postage stamps and the banknote designs.

Some rarities on sale at yesterday's Collectors meeting in Lincolnshire.
