What a beautiful colour for a pram.....I wonder why there are not many around....Perhaps because it really lent itself to a baby girl.....wish I was having a baby back in he day....Would have bought that one...LOL

I think you may be right Val, perhaps they were only made to order and in those days people favoured the blue rather than the other colours.  As you say "if only we'd known"  - we'd all be millionaires wouldn't we!!

I concur, Valerie! So unique, and delicate the Lilac Wedgewood is - must have been geared more towards baby girls - therefore the rarity if one had to special order...

A thing of beauty, and a true joy to behold!... Thank goodness someone has treasured and been such a great caretaker of so rare a model / colourways!

Thank you for sharing it with us, Pat!

I've wanted to see a lilac wedgewood--disappointed though that the H&A aren't lilac !!!  I do have a photo of a pastorale with a lilac H&A!!!!!   I did part with my lilac H&A lined camelia a couple of years ago--now wouldn't it do this pram justice!!!!!    Valerie if we'd all had forsight we'd all be rich-LOLING!!!!!!  Francesxxxxx
