Finding Discontinued Stemware

michigangirl723 — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 20:55:17 GMT

I went to order some more of my wine glasses (Mikasa French Countryside in clear) and found out they are discontinued! I checked Mikasa's website and they only have my style in the water goblets, not the wine glasses. I'm heart broken. I was told to check Replacements .com and found them but they are used and are $29.99 a piece, which is almost double what I paid per glass, brand new. Any other ideas of where to find discontinued items? Below is the pic of the item. Thanks in advance for the help!

@michigangirl723

Do you have a Mikasa outlet store near you?

I have the same glassware and I have found replacements at Bed Bath and Beyond. Also check EBay. I have the Mikasa French Countryside, Italian Countryside and English Countryside and matching stemware. When I have needed plates I have found them on Replacements. Good Luck😊

How pretty !!!!! Love that its a good solid stem so a klutz like me can't topple the glass or (and have lost many glasses and finger nails) to an unintended karate chop !.

Have a look on EBay...there is alot of stuff there. It will be time consuming a bit-- people will post under "white wine glass" or "stem ware". You get the picture. I am on the hunt myself for a replacement glass from Pier 1: I want 3 more but will be content with just one.

Google the pattern. Found some at JC Penney online.

@butterfly123 @Zhills

Thanks so much for searching for me! You guys have been so helpful, but although those are the same line, they are the water goblets which are 15oz. I believe mine are 9oz for the wine glasses. I'm just going to have to keep looking.

@michigangirl723- I had some time so I did some google and eBay searching for you. I think Replacements Ltd. is your best bet, even though they're more expensive.

A few listed on ebay were used and had some chips. I looked at Penney's Kohl's, Bed Bath and Beyond and no luck.

Do you have a Mikasa outlet store near you?

That is a good place to find discontinued items.

I started collecting Holiday Tartan by Lenox. I would go to the Lenox outlet and buy whatever pieces I could find. And every year I found more and more pieces. I did not know that Lenox retired the pattern until at least 2 years after it was retired. I was still able to find the pattern for at least another 3-4 years. I stopped going to the outlet about 2 years ago so not sure the status of the pattern at the present time.

Try etsy.com too.

I searched on mikasa french countryside goblet and a seller came up. The goblets might be the larger size though.

@gidgetgh Oh my goodness...you are so sweet! Thank you so much...you did not have to do that. I really appreciate you taking the time and doing some research for me. I think I may end up buying through them...hate to spend the extra money, but love them so much I think it's worth it. Thanks so much again and have a great night!

@drizzellla Thanks so much for the suggestion, but unfortunately on Mikasa's website it states they closed all their stores So glad you were able to find your Holiday Tartan pattern though....it's beautiful. I love Lenox and actually have had my eye on their new holiay pattern this year called "Holiday Nouveau" (below is what it looks like). I've never been to a Lenox outlet store....would they have new patterns like this or is more patterns and items that have been around a while?

I go to the outlet in Cranbury, NJ. It is huge. There are the newest patterns and occasional retired patterns and everything in between.

I know for a fact they have Holiday Nouveau. Because it has the tartan ribbon and some of the same elements as Holiday Tartan. I bought Holiday Nouveau tablecloth and napkins. I figure they usually need to be replaced after gravy etc are splattered on them.

Michigan Girl, I just checked mikasa dot com and they have French Countryside goblets, item K45194834, 4 goblets @$49.00. They also sell individual and 8 goblets. I don't believe they are an exact match to your, but if the price is OK for you, perhaps you can replace yours with these. Just a thought. Just search Mikasa French Countryside and plenty show up. Good luck to you.
