Diary 2007

March/April 2007
Denby have introduced two new patterns for 2007, Oyster and Merlot. In addition there is New Look Glassware to compliment all the existing Denby patterns and extensions to some of the best loved ranges.
Merlot A deep and luscious berry glaze with a velvety smooth finish makes Merlot a stunning range. The pieces are on the classic shape offering a full dinner service with practical cookware pieces. This range has universal appeal offering contemporary shapes with a traditional Denby look.
Merlot is due to be available in May 2007. The range has been added to the Kings and Queens sites and we are taking pre-orders for all pieces.
If Merlot is included as part of a larger order the whole order will be delayed until the range is available.

New Glassware Denby Glassware has always been popular and in 2007 Denby has chosen to rationalise the range. There are now 9 ranges: Azure, China, Fire, Greenwich, Imperial Blue, Jet, Linen, Oyster and White. Each range is made up of small tumbler, large tumbler, red wine, white wine, champagne flute and dessert bowl. The glass comes as sets of 2 in attractive gift boxes and will be available in May 2007.
All the new glass has been added to Kings and Queens and we are now taking pre-orders. If you include the new glassware as part of a larger order the whole order will be delayed until the glass is available.

Line Extensions 2007 2007 sees a number of additions to popular collections and a harmonization of shapes. The covered sugar bowl in Linen, Regency Green, Greenwich and Imperial Blue adopts a new and more attractive shape. The new serving bowl, originally launched in 2006 in Jet, is extended to Linen, Regency Green, Azure, Greenwich and Imperial Blue with some patterns offering both the Large and Medium sizes and others just one size. Ramekins are reintroduced to a number of ranges along with the Square Dish. The inclusion of the Dipping Bowl and Noodle Bowl to more patterns ensures a greater standardisation of pieces in the more popular collections. Linen sees a revamp as the pattern is extended to include Butter Dish, Oval Platter, Round Casserole, Sauce Boat and Stand as well as the new Serving Bowl, Ramekin and Square Dish. China also welcomes new pieces, practical everyday items such as Salt and Pepper, Sauce Boat and Stand and Divided Dish are joined by a number of serving items including Platters and Deep Serving Bowl.
All new items have been included on Kings and Queens and all pieces should be available in May 2007. We are taking pre-orders for all new items but if you include new items as part of a larger order, the whole order will be delayed until the new items are available.

We would like to wish all our customers a very Happy New Year and thank them for their support in 2006
Christmas 2006

Denby did very well again this year, meeting most orders with in the deadline for shipping. This was achieved through a combination of the extremely efficient sales team processing the orders and our representative,

Lloyd's dogged determination to push everything through. Denby is the most progressively thinking of the Kings and Queens trading partners, not only are they refining their practices to ensure that on line customers receive the same standard of care as they expect them to receive from traditional china shops, but also in their new and innovative tableware designs which they continue to update and launch, keeping the company fresh and appealing.
Retirements

Denby have announced a number of retirements for the beginning of 2007.

Drama and Signature were the first patterns to be retired in the second half of 2006 and we are afraid that all stocks have now been exhausted and these patterns have now been removed from our site.

Storm, Cinnamon and Light & Shade were all officially retired on 31st December 2006. Owing to the high demand for these patterns Denby have agreed to honour orders up to 30th January. They hope to be able to supply most items from the ranges but obviously they can not guarantee every piece. In our experience the company is very good and will try to produce the items eventually. Please bear in mind if you wish to order from these ranges we must receive your order by 30th January and all orders may be subject to an increased delay.

Glassware

Denby Glassware is to re-launched in the spring of 2007. The Glassware ranges have grown in popularity over the years and are now collected in their own right by many customers. The Glassware is excellent quality and value for money but the ranges need to be re-vamped, so expect to see new styles and ranges along with gift packaging which is sure to enhance the range.

We are now running down our current stocks in preparation of the re-launch. All glassware is now subject to availability.

2007 Retirements

Patterns to be retired in December 2007 are Energy and Blue Linen. These two popular patterns will remain available throughout 2007 but we urge customers to consider completing their collections as early as possible to avoid longer delays as we reach the end of the year.

New Pattern for 2007

Denby are launching two new patterns in the Spring of 2007. Like many companies Denby likes to keep their new designs under wraps until the International Spring Fair at the beginning of February. If we had had a sneak preview - which of course we haven't!!??!- we would describe them as; one very modern in the fashionable combination of black and white and a second more traditional range introducing burgundy to the existing colour ways produced by Denby, both completely stunning.

We will update the diary page with more information as it becomes available.
