Vaisselle Vintage

What Vaisselle Vintage does

Vaisselle Vintage is a Paris-based rental company that curates and rents authentic vintage and antique tableware, linens, furniture, and decorative items for events, operating under the legal entity Options Informatique SARL and founded by Marine. The company sources its inventory from brocantes across France and serves both individuals planning weddings and private celebrations and professionals organizing corporate events and galas, primarily across France and Europe. Its offering is organized into four core categories — art de la table, nappage, mobilier, and decoration — and is further segmented into themed collections such as Popolo, Ligne, Carreau, Bleu-Vert, Blanc-Doré, Grès, Géranium, Octime, and Poisson, supported by editorial moodboards (Bohème Champêtre, Into the Wild, Tea Time, etc.) that guide customers in styling cohesive events.

The business runs on a quote-based, usage-based rental model with no publicly displayed pricing. Customers select items from the online catalog, add them to cart, and receive a personalized quote from a commercial team within 48 hours, with pricing varying by event requirements, quantities, duration, and delivery location. Distribution combines a sales-led e-commerce website with a physical showroom at 5 Quai de la Tournelle in Paris (open by appointment, Monday to Friday, 10h-18h) and pickup/delivery points across the broader OPTIONS network spanning France, the UK, Belgium, Spain, Luxembourg, Monaco, and Switzerland. The company also operates two annual brocantes as both a sourcing mechanism and a brand engagement event.

The technology stack is non-proprietary: the e-commerce site and hosting are provided by parent Options Informatique, with no disclosed AI, data, or software differentiation. The organization is small, with seven employees, and its go-to-market relies heavily on content marketing through a blog (with active 2026 publishing on porcelain heritage and seasonal styling), Instagram, an email newsletter, and downloadable bilingual French/English PDF catalogs. There is no evidence of external venture or private equity investment, and the company is privately held under a SARL structure registered in Les Mureaux, France.

Direct peers

• Pop's Location: Paris-based event rental operator with a mutual partnership with Vaisselle Vintage (free delivery to its showroom as a pickup point). Direct peer because it rents event furniture and décor to the same Parisian wedding and corporate customer base.
• Options Informatique SARL: The parent company of Vaisselle Vintage, Options Informatique SARL operates the broader OPTIONS network of event-rental showrooms and warehouses across Europe, offering overlapping furniture, tableware, and event décor rental services with similar B2B and B2C customer segments.
• GreatHire (OPTIONS Greathire London): The UK arm of the OPTIONS network, offering event furniture and equipment hire to UK-based event planners and corporate clients. Direct peer because it shares inventory categories, delivery model, and customer base with Vaisselle Vintage in the cross-Channel event rental market.
• Crockery Hire: UK-based tableware and event rental company offering plates, glasses, cutlery, and furniture hire for weddings and events. Direct peer due to identical core product category (event tableware hire) and overlapping B2B event customer segment.
• Wedding Furniture Hire UK: UK specialist in vintage and rustic event furniture rental for weddings. Direct peer in the niche of curated, style-led event furniture hire targeting the same wedding and private celebration segment.

Broad incumbents

• Villeroy & Boch: Major European tableware manufacturer offering both classic and vintage-inspired porcelain lines. Broad incumbent because it competes in the broader event-tableware category through retail and HoReCa channels, potentially eroding demand for vintage rentals.
• Bernardaud: Historic French luxury porcelain manufacturer whose pieces Vaisselle Vintage sources and rents. Broad incumbent because it owns the underlying IP and product line; while not a rental company, it competes for the same end-customer tableware spend through direct sales.
• Haviland: Prestigious French porcelain manufacturer from Limoges whose vintage pieces are stocked by Vaisselle Vintage. Broad incumbent because it produces and retails new fine tableware in the same luxury category that Vaisselle Vintage addresses through rental.
• Maison du Monde: Large French home furnishings and décor retailer offering vintage- and shabby-chic-style tableware, furniture, and decorative items for purchase. Broad incumbent because it addresses the same 'vintage aesthetic' customer need through retail rather than rental.

Regional players

• The Wedding Shop: UK-based wedding retail and registry platform serving engaged couples. Regional player because it targets the same end-customer segment (couples planning weddings) with adjacent services, though it operates in the UK rather than France.
