We wanted to add some place settings to our wedding china, but the pattern is discontinued. Also, we have a gravy boat but no other serving pieces. I found Replacements Ltd. to solve both issues. They buy and sell discontinued and hard to find china and crystal patterns. They have been in business 27 years and are very reputable. They have every possible piece in my patterns, both china and crystal. However, I decided to sell them the gravy boat and buy all my serving pieces in a matching pattern, which complements my place settings. I purchased new place settings from them, and can't wait to recieve them. They have a 100% satisfaction guarantee, so if they are not mint condition, they go back at their expense.
