Handmade in the UK | Vintage China & Fine Bone China | Delightfully Offensive

Come and see Swears of Joy In Person.

Every market is a little different.

My vintage china is completely one of a kind, so no two stalls are ever exactly the same. I carefully choose which plates, trinkets and statement pieces come with me to each event, alongside a selection of my hand-pressed fine bone china mugs. Some mug collections are available all year, while others only make an appearance for a season.

If you've fallen in love with a particular vintage piece or mug on the website, just get in touch before the event. If it's still available, I'll happily bring it along for you.

You'll find all my upcoming markets below, together with dates, locations and any booking links where available.

like a plate that’s said worse.”
