Wedgewood waterford

My set of china I got for my wedding was wedgewood. Do you think i should go and get a couple more settings now - will it become unavailable? or will they be reducing everything in the next couple of weeks. It would be a stretch but I could proably get another 2 settings

Really gutted - such an old firm and such beautiful stuff - and one of the reasons we chose it was that we would be ble to replace broken bits for a long time...:-(

    It's not *closing* yet - they've gone into administration and a buyer is being sought, but in the meantime the business is still manufacturing. If the firm does close, obviously there won't be any more of your pattern available, but I would have thought that would be the time to buy extra settings if you wanted them, rather than stretching the finances to do it now.
  • It is really sad isn't it - it's an iconic manufacturer.
  • I would get extra settings now anyway - everyone changes designs from time to time. They could cease to be available anyway.
