  • Thanks so much for posting this bargain, just brought 8 sets from my local shop. I was after a really nice dinner set. I think I've tracked down the patten number and name for those who might what to add to the collection its Royal Doulton Dryden H5279. There looks like there are a few extra bits you can add, gravy boat, cream jug and teapot. None of them cheap but I think i might try and invest in the extra bits if I can.

    What a bargin, thanks again!! :D

    thankyou OP I just ordered two sets for my grandparents, I dont get to see them very much and they live in a retirement apartment and are having christmas by themselves, hopefully they will enjoy their dinner on these.
  • :D Hubby managed to get another two sets on his way home from work, so we have 10 now, this should see us for a fair few years of 'special' use and will allow for any breakages due to my clumsiness :o

  • thanks OP
    bought the last 4 sets from local robert dyas
    assistant said they werent seconds
    rushed home to unpack and wash and put in my cupboard! they are lovely. not heavy either.
    i thought i wouldnt have much use for the 'small cups' but they actually hold as much liquid as my regular mugs.:j
    i'm not going to call them 'the dishes' - it's going to be 'the royal doulton' from now on ;)
    (never ever thought plates and stuff would make me feel happy!)
  • Ooooh ...... I have just put 10 settings and 2 platters in my basket - I really don't need them but that's not really the point is it? We're moving next year so I am going to stash them away until then.

    Thanks OP - terriffic find! :j
