Broken cake stand

76 replies

ShadowPaint · Today 09:55

14 years ago I received the most glorious white bone china cake stand with glass dome as a wedding present from my grandmother. It was a Royal Doulton collab and it was simple yet refined and absolutely perfect for fitting all my oversized kid’s birthday cakes onto. It’s now smashed.
The incident involved a disagreement over a second piece of cake and the lid was placed down too roughly and it shattered everywhere, the base split in two.
It wasn’t me who broke it but I’m now looking for a fitting replacement. Nothing in the shops I can find seems as elegant or beautiful. The ones I find have knobs at the top that seem disproportionally oversized and the base not elegant or they are too plain.
Maybe I’m looking in the wrong places.
Does anyone have any recommendations?

I'm in the US and collected Royal Dalton Brambly Hedge many years ago. I noticed some of the sets had missing pieces and suspect my eldest son broke them when he was a kid and never said anything. To complete the sets I found a web site that sold replacement pieces. I think it might have been this site, link below. You may have similar businesses in England.
