Can't find them anywhere else but maybe email omlet to ask who their suppliers are. There is a lovely boutique type shop called Byfords in a town called Witham near me that does the whole range in the style of these egg cups

Including a full size egg holder you are after. Just a thought

Omlet even say there are more in the range but haven't listed them.

I had a thought. I dont live far from Stoke on Trent, so I rang the bridgewater factory shop and asked if they had any seconds.

They have got lots in :D So my daughter and I went to have a look today and I have bought one. They are £35 in the facory shop. Still quite dear I know but better than £50 :shock:

We went for the spotty one but have come away with the marran hen instead. The pics on the net dont do it justice. Its really lovley and I am a very happy hen owner! :D I have got 12 eggs in it! :D Search for the right one is over!

Great news :D I nearly bought you one from a charity sale today, it was a sort of old fashioned M&S crockery style :? a little but not wildly colourful.

I saw a gorgeous one in a charity shop yesterday - it was tiny, almost like a jam pot, with a brown glazed basket base and a white glazed hen decorated with little yellow flowers. 99p! :shock: I got half way to the till with it then realised the basket base was cracked almost completely in half :evil: I'm still in two minds whether to go back for it, but I do like to use things and this would be purely for decoration only :(
