6 online dealers for vintage tableware
We can nally entertain the idea of celebrating with friends and family
Second Abode
Roman Dennis, a recent graduate of interior architecture and design, has curated a collection of vintage and found objects for the home with a focus on drinkware, glasses and tableware. We love the playful print tumblers and the Art Deco fruit bowl set currently in stock. secondabode.co; @secondabode
One-off Piece
Sophie Douglas carefully chooses – and beautifully styles and photographs – fabulous one- off pieces of vintage tableware. Expect such delights as spongeware candlesticks, checked jugs and vases, pretty floral plates and basketweave butter dishes. oneoffpiece.co.uk; @oneoffpiecelondon
Albie & Pearl
Marie Pontefract, who lives on the Kent coast, set up Albie & Pearl (named after her children) when she changed career, having worked for nearly 20 years as a womenswear designer. Due to her background in fashion, colour and trend, you can expect wonderfully styled shots of the pieces she purveys. @albie_and_ pearl
Vintique Nostalgia
This Etsy and Insta shop is a good stop for a virtual rummage for vintage jugs, crystal wine glasses and tumblers, as well as other, many floral, vintage finds. No doubt the beautiful champagne coupes will be snaffled. etsy.com/uk/market/vintiquenostalgia; @vintiquenostalgia
The Vintage Entertainer
Tania Fawcett sells everything you could possibly imagine when it comes to vintage pieces for entertaining, with particular focus on old English silver plate and European 20th- century glass. The Georgian Bristol green wine glasses among her recent finds had us at hello. thevintageentertainer.com; @thevintageentertainer
