Welcome to the Goss Collectors' Club, an International Society established in 1970 for collectors of Goss china and similar, related, wares known as crested china.

The Club is based in the U.K., though membership is worldwide. It is governed by a committee of dedicated, enthusiastic collectors drawn from all walks of life. It exists solely to assist collectors of Goss and crested china to further their hobby and is non-profit making. 

The Club publishes a monthly magazine full of interesting articles on Goss and crested china. It also runs a monthly postal auction, usually containing around 400 items of Goss and crested ware. Anyone may submit pieces for inclusion in the auction but only Club members may take part in the bidding. A 10% sales commission is charged on all items sold which is used to defray the expenses incurred in the running of the Club. A reserve price may be placed by the vendor on any item submitted for auction. Realisations of the most recent auction are available on the website.

Unsold items from the monthly postal auctions may be purchased by both members and non-members at their reserve price.

The Club organises Fairs at which a number of specialist traders, who are members of the Club, as well as other Club members offer Goss and crested china items for sale. These Fairs are organised at various locations around the U.K. One Fair is held in April each year together with the Club's A.G.M.

Membership in the U.K. is, roughly, divided into regions which have their own officers who organise regular meetings at the homes of members. 

For anyone interested in Goss and/or crested china, membership of this Club is a "must". The annual subscription is a modest £15. For an extra £1 a joint membership confers full voting rights on two members of the same household although only one monthly magazine will be sent. Overseas membership costs a little more due to airmail charges. Details on request.
