WEMBLEY WARE SOCIETY INC GENERAL MEETING was held on Saturday 9th February 2013
The meeting was held at a Mystery Location in Canning Vale, the location of which was revealed just in time for the members to make their way there.
Twenty two members and guests attended the delightful venue in a coffee-shop situated in a garden centre. The well-stocked and interesting antique shop nearby was a temptation. An impressive collection of lovely pieces of Wembley Ware was displayed and many purchases were made by the members.
Plenty of time was allowed for chatting over afternoon tea and all agreed that it was a most successful day.

17 December, 2011
Wembley Ware Society General Meeting was held in Subiaco.
The program included some time for socialising and refreshments and also a display and explanation of members’ recently purchased items. This was very interesting with several uncommon items of Wembley Ware, Calyx, Australian Fine China and Bristile being shown.
Dirk Meier was a very popular Guest Speaker, having worked at the china factory for 50 years. We hope Dirk will be back to address us again in 2012.
It was a terrific opportuinity to meet with other collectors and people interested in the china, and the committee would love to see even more members attending future meetings.
Those present were asked for feedback and suggestions for how the society could meet the member’s needs. A request was made for members to join the committee and/or help in particular roles such as website manager, assistance in setting-up meetings etc.
We look forward to more Wembley Ware Society events in 2012.
