So my cat knocked over this old vase my parents had forever, and while I was picking up the pieces, I realized how intricate and beautiful it was. Total heartbreak, but also sparked my interest in porcelain antiques. I’d love some tips on where to start looking for quality pieces or iconic styles to explore!

Oh, that’s such a bittersweet story! I feel you—my cat once sent a vintage teacup crashing, and while sweeping up, I got lost in its delicate floral pattern. It’s wild how a broken thing can spark a new obsession! For porcelain antiques, start with local estate sales or thrift shops—sometimes you find hidden gems. Online, I stumbled across rare pottery finds , and it’s got a cool range of pieces. Iconic styles? Look into Meissen or Wedgwood for classic elegance. My fave find was a chipped but stunning Delft plate at a flea market—reminds me of my grandma’s stories about her mom’s old china collection. Happy hunting!
