About Miss Albertine
I am based in South East London and have a range of beautiful, eclectic, mismatched china available for hire, including tea pots and cake stands. Perfect for tea parties, christenings /naming ceremonies, hen parties, birthdays or (small) weddings.
Miss Albertine Description
I'm a collector of vintage china, based in South London - and my collection is available for hire (plus some selected items for sale). My china reflects my own personal eclectic taste, so you may find classic 1950s and 60s pieces mingling with more traditional floral bone china.
My collection is small but growing fast, so it's perfect for birthdays, tea parties, christenings, baby showers, and small weddings.
If you are interested, please get in touch and I can send you my price list - or why not make an appointment to come and have a browse?
I also have lace doilies available for hire, and other accessories including jam jars for flowers or tea lights. I am always searching for that essential perfect new piece for the collection, so I'm happy to try and source items if you have something specific in mind.

Dainty little jug I picked up yesterday, 'Belinda' design by Paragon, is the perfect size for displaying lilies of the valley. Looks lovely and smells lovely too...
A recent find from one of my favourite local charity emporiums, Emmaus - a lovely Colclough jug.
Most of my china is mismatched...but you can still get some lovely colour/pattern combinations.
A selection of my favourite teacups....

New plates on the #Etsy shop this week! https://www.etsy.com/…/16631…/studio- meakin-maori-side-plate
It took a bit of laptop wrangling, but I've set up a shop on Etsy, to sell some of the plates too lovely to turn into cake stands. More items to be added soon... http://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/MissAlbertine London…
One of our cake stands in use at a beautifully styled Mad Hatter themed tea party!
One of my very favourite things - a Midwinter 'Bella Vista' plate becomes a cake platter. The design is almost too pretty to cover up, though!
A couple of my favourite new new bone china side dishes - one with a sweet pea design, the other with a thistle.
Pretty new tea cups with gold detail on handle - I have a set of 6 like this.
Lovely embroidered doily, a new find from my latest charity shop trawl!
Another new 2-tier cake stand, lovely rose patterns on this one.
