Where to Find Discount Wedgwood China
By Max Bellamy
There is not a lot of discount Wedgwood China available, although, given the prices of some of the items in the line, any discount is greatly appreciated. You might not think paying $50 for a plate is a discount, however, depending on the age of the particular item and the supply of pieces, $50 might seem like a discount. You might not think of it but not every design, not every creation from the Wedgwood Company has been a smash hit.
Even the most successful companies in any field have products and designs that failed to catch on with the public and Wedgwood is no exception. Not many people are aware that in the mid to late 20th Century, a lot of the actual production of Wedgwood China was farmed out to other factories and craftsmen for a variety of reasons. Some of this product was less popular than other lines manufactured in the original premises. As a result there is a variety of less expensive, discount Wedgwood China available for the discerning shopper who must have Wedgwood and must have it at a bargain price.
These days you have to do your homework before you make any purchase of discount Wedgwood China or you're very likely to get fleeced by an unscrupulous merchant. With factories all over Asia churning out imitations of every designer line, there are items being advertised for sale as Wedgwood that aren't; and there are items being advertised for sale as antique Wedgwood that also aren't. Unless you're simply looking to fill in that missing piece from grandma's collection and you don't really care about dating or authenticity, then let the price be your guide.
However, if you are more of a purist who insists that his Wedgwood be real Wedgwood, then do your homework, learn the identifying characteristics of Wedgwood China and then go shopping.
