[QUOTE="rhiwfield, post: 168017, member: 924"]Aquitaine's thread on her BiL china sparked some thoughts on how to get a return on domestic china. In no particular order here they are: [LIST] [*]There is a good collector market for attractive duos and trios [*]Art deco styling usually sells well [*]60s styling can sell well but need to be selective eg homemaker and fantasia [*]Scandinavian styling is often a good seller [*]Mix match duos can be winners [*]Wedding and vintage tea collections of china are sought after eg a set of six mix match side plates [*]Soup and cereal bowls are often the best selling parts of a dinner service [*]Some long serving patterns have continued to sell well but are now struggling a tad eg Royal Albert o!d country roses. [*]Shelley sells well and expensive if a desirable pattern, but is prone to damage [*]As in life, being pretty is better than being old!!! [/LIST][/QUOTE]
