I am shopping for new dinnerware and I cannot make up my mind. I purchased a set online but will be returning it because it looks nothing like it does on the computer.

I love wedgewood but cannot afford it. I definitely want china but I don't want to spend a fortune. Let me know if any of you have a favorite pattern and what you love about it. I'll look it up. Thanks for your help!!!

Answer
Both of my very fave patterns have, I think, been discontinued.

Old English Rose by Royal Albert
Desert Rose by Franciscan.

A good everyday dinnerware is Fiestaware. It is very sturdy and comes in lots of colors so you can mix and match with your decor.
The company that makes Fiestaware, Homer Laughlin, also makes restaurant grade china and their stuff holds up like iron. They make serving, pieces, too.

How do I find out how valuable my items are to be put on ebay?

Can ebay give me a price? I truly do not know where to start.
Some are items from overseas. The 12 piece china set, is
about a hundred years old, from overseas. I just keep them in
a closet. Silverware, believe gold plated, other have ivory handles on them. I have never used them for fear of breaking them, and I have my other china I use. Noritka and Rosendal,( sorry typo's) for quests that come over.

Answer
I always search for it on ebay. Just type in the name of the brand and usually something will pop up. People sell TONS of china and dinnerware on there. I have before.

Try looking on http://www.replacements.com I believe it's spelled "Noritake".

They have china and such for "replacement" usually they have some history and pricing on them.

Good Luck! I Know that can be a head ache.
