Concept:
Spencer’s Tableware sells vintage (used) quality china brands, the vast majority of which are out of production. We also provide a market for the purchase of vintage china in good condition from our customers. We sell china as individual pieces or complete sets as required. We source our stock from suppliers which include private customers, dealers, house clearances, antique fairs, flea markets, specialist and other second‐hand shops.
We buy from suppliers located throughout Europe and America. We sell to customers worldwide.
