Fleur de Lys pattern has been produced in various colours, on different shapes and on different bodies since 1852. The Fleur de Lys, or iris, figures prominently in European heraldry being particularly associated with French royalty.

The grey version was introduced in 1955 and withdrawn in 1974.It has pattern numberY7515 and was printed in silver-grey (BE 271) and edged in silver. Fleur de Lys was also produced in red with pattern number Y7481 and blue with pattern number Y8008 which was introduced in about1962.The blue version was withdrawn in 1973. The gold version, which is still in production, has pattern number Y8063.

These patterns were all produced on Chelsea shape in bone china. Although only produced on china now, it was produced on earthenware in the past and is probably the oldest pattern on this particular shape of ware. Again several versions were produced. The main versions on earthenware are brown with pattern number S2833 introduced in 1954; a blue version, produced in different shades but latterly in Saxe blue, in 1892 and a pink version. The earliest record of the pattern is in 1852 with pattern number 8910 but this was produced on a plain shape.

In 1999 a blue version of the pattern was reintroduced.
