The magazine "Nous Deux" has a long and interesting article on the different ways to use old dishes. It discusses donating, selling, or repurposing them.

It is mainly about Début de Série which continues the idea developed in Femmes Actuelles , a site to reconstruct its chipped or scattered services.

Debutdeserie.com: The site we like
Inevitably, over time, pieces have been broken, sets have become scattered... Are you missing two porcelain plates, the silver spoons have disappeared or have you just broken your grandmother's earthenware sauceboat?

Start of Series connects users who have the missing part or are looking for the one you no longer use.
