What we do
At Fragilistica, we buy a wide range of glass. pottery, porcelain, and ceramics in single pieces or in large quantities.
Fragilistica offers a price for the items and can set up a prompt collection, whether your goal is to move on an old vase you're tired of or you're a house clearance company clearing out a full house.
Who are we?
We offer: Packaging, Selling and Recycling of Fragile Homeware in Tyne & Wear, County Durham, Northumberland & Teeside.
Here at Fragilistica we are passionate about two things. The environment and preserving unwanted antique and vintage breakables. After seeing so many beautiful items being thrown away and ending up in landfills, we thought, what is better than to preserve both? From this, Fragilistica was born.
We give breakable home items a fresh start. Specialising in fragile homeware such as pottery, glass, ceramics, and more, we aim to reduce waste and make sustainability simple. Whether you are a private seller with one vase that doesn’t fit your style anymore or you’re a house clearance company doing a full house clearance.
We’re about preserving materials and memories. Selling breakables to us means clearing space or redistributing your loved ones cherished collectibles after their passing, while joining an eco-friendly mission in the process.
Each piece is assessed for reuse, refurbishment, or recycling, and we ensure you get a fair deal for all purchases and sales.
We work closely with private sellers, house clearance companies, estate agents, landlords etc. and by working with us, you help reduce landfill waste and minimise new production. A win-win for everyone!
Whether tidying up or clearing a house, we make it easy and stress-free.
Can't I sell my breakables through online sites and local advertising?
Yes, you can. However, many of our clients tell us of the pitfalls of waiting at home for the no-shows, spending time answering questions that come to nothing, feeling unsafe having strangers come into their home and giving out their home address, or simply agreeing to a price only to be knocked down at the point of sale.
By using our services, we can take the items you want to dispose of, in one go, at an agreed price, without the stress and at a time to suit you. This keeps your personal location private and prevents time wasted on people who don't really want to buy the items.
