I'm in the market for a new set of china plates etc.

However, what happens is one of many parts will get broken or at
least chipped badly in just a few years.

Does anyone sell long life designs - nothing fancy, plain is good
(thinking hotels and restaurants must demand sets that they can get
new parts for?)

Try a catering range from Nisbets

https://www.nisbets.co.uk/tableware-...ockery/_/a33-2

They have a shop in Shaftesbury Avenue, or the mail order service is
good.




Thank you

I've also found Wedgewood mentioned elsewhere as being able to get
spares for at least some of their ranges long after. Some ranges have
eye watering prices, but some less so.

That's probably true for most of the "higher end" makers. Denby for
example will often keep a range going for decades. Quality stuff, but
you pay for it. Also not much help if you buy a range that has been out
for decades and then gets discontinued.
