Mackenzie-Childs Pattern Name Change

Sakuya — Sun, 31 Aug 2025 08:17:04 GMT

Has anyone else noticed that Rebecca now calls the White Flower Market pattern simply White Flower? She has dropped the word "Market" from all of the Flower Market patterns.

Does anyone know why? I prefer keeping the word "Market" in the pattern name as it sounds prettier. Just using the color with the word flower makes it seem not as special. When I hear "Flower Market" I think of Paris and it gives a more upscale impression. Dropping the "Market" does not bring forth a visual.

@Sakuya i just saw on the Mackenzie-Childs website some new items still called 'flower market' so i think that is still the official name

@Sakuya That's interesting. That is my favorite pattern they do. Maybe she is just shortening the name for television. I do notice it is called White Flower Market everywhere else though. Stay turned...

I was wondering if White Flower was a slightly different pattern than White Flower Market.

What I see on the M-C section on QVC seems to have either fewer flowers or fewer colors in the pattern.

I think I would almost have to hold them side by side to see.

I have some pieces in the Black Flower Market pattern and I ordered the Mini Cannisters in Black Floral so I'll let you know when I have both of them together to compare.

I have Black Flower Market and Green Flower Market. Then they discontinued making all the items with these patterns except for a few pieces. I am wondering if dropping "Market" means they will bring them back under the guise of a new name.

There is not as much White Flower pattern anymore. I know the check is popular but it is just not my thing.

Re: Mackenzie-Childs Pattern Name Change

Sakuya — Sun, 31 Aug 2025 20:05:58 GMT

Yes, we would like Flower Market offered in all colors in more things!

I'm liking the new Wild Rose Brown color pattern.

It's almost a black-brown and will work in well with darker fall decor colors, and their items are enamelware, so not as susceptible to chipping or breaking as their ceramic pieces are.

BLACK FLOWER MARKET and BLACK FLOWER are not the same.

My set of Black Flower small cannisters arrived today, I compared the with my regular size Black Flower Market cannisters.

The new Black Floral is not the same. It is very similar, and you wouldn't see it unless you had them in a row.

The new one has some different flowers that are not on BFM. It has less green in the floral pattern. Floral Market has more identifiable flowers, while Floral has fewer recognizeable flowers. It's almost like M-C lost the pattern for Floral Market and someone had to re-create it strictly from memory.

I much prefer Black Floral Market.. I assume it is the same for the other Floral Market colors, too.

@SactoSue - That is interesting. There are different Black Floral Market patterns. For instance, the charger, dinner plate, and salad plate are different. As is the 3qt vs the 2qt teapots. If they have changed the pattern and simply removed the "Market" to indicate that, it seems sneaky. I like the original.

I went to the Mackenzie-Childs website and they seem to have a lot of the White Flower Market pieces. Kettles, plates, vases, collanders, bowls all seem in stock.

Very little Black Flower Market, and what look like a few clearance Green Flower Market.

Re: Mackenzie-Childs Pattern Name Change

Sakuya — Thu, 04 Sep 2025 01:23:48 GMT

Several years ago they stopped making all the flower markets in a big selection. They narrowed it down to just white flower market but would continue the other colors in a few items such as teapot and colanders. There is still a few things that pop up now and again in the other colors, but it is limited. The other colors have been on clearance on and off for awhile.

Hi! @SactoSue 🌸

You had me thinking since I have a sweet jar and the large serving bowl in the Black Floral Market.

When I googled the difference it said it’s the same collection I’m thinking pieces have different patterns of floral specific to the item.

For example my sweet jar doesn’t have the same flowers as my large bowl. Only the black background is the same.

So maybe your set of larger canisters is going to be different than the smaller canister set? Just a thought….

The Flower Market pieces always seem to cheer me up.

I have the large green collander / great bowl and it is lovely in summer just filled with fruit, or flowers, either real or artificial. Such a pretty green color.

I don't have any Blue Flower Market. It just wasn't all that special to me.

@RescueLover

I don't mind the difference, as it's not really detectable from across the room. I do like the smaller cannisters. The orignal floral pattern is prettier, to my eye. I really don't need any more so I'm not going to worry about it.

Did anyone notice there are 3 flower market pumpkins on Mackenzie-Childs website. Orange, black and violet. I really wanted white

Re: Mackenzie-Childs Pattern Name Change

SactoSue — Fri, 05 Sep 2025 16:35:18 GMT

Several years ago M-C did the Flower Market Pumpkins. I remember thinking they were gorgeous then, but only got one small black one.

I think they came in orange or black. There was also a large mixed pattern pumpkin with Yellow Flower Market and Orange Flower Market panels. There is one of those older large pumpkins for sale on Ebay if you want to take a look at it. I think I like it better than the current offering.

I seem to recall there was also a stack of Flower Market Pumpkins, one of those stacks meant for outdoors, that were really expensive.

The older series of Flower Market pumpkins had dots in the background color, while the 2025 version does not have the dots. That's how you can tell them apart.

I don't recall there ever being a White Flower Market one, though.

SactoSue — Fri, 05 Sep 2025 19:45:41 GMT

OOPS

I am TOTALLY Wrong

The 2025 Flower Market pumpkins do have the dots in the background.

I just checked, my bad. Sorry

Rebecca confirmed on the second show, I believe, that the Flower Market patterns are now called Flower. She didn't give a reason why the name change.
