I picked up this little bowl from a local charity shop a while back.
The label is still on the bottom – 69p.
I had to look up the pattern when I got home.
It is Topic from the Studio range by J&G Meakin and dates from 1967.
I own a large but ugly plastic caddy that I use to store most of my sewing threads in (it was my mum’s; it is an unpleasant shade of dark beige and therefore I hide it away) but I use this little bowl to keep a few sewing threads to hand.
It stops them rolling about and disappearing under mounds of fabric.
As I am already over-endowed in the china department, I haven’t collected any more Topic.
Yet.
But it is certainly nice enough to covet.
What a lovely little bowl. I really like the Topic pattern, I don’t have any yet but it is one I keep an eye out for.
Love it! Such a cute pattern – I love a good find!
Me too! I especially covet one of those tall, shapely coffee pots. Even though I don’t actually like coffee.
It is lovely and a bargain find
Since 1967 is (eek) my birth year, I may need to search for some Topic dishes. Love it.
That is such a lovely pattern!
