About 130 people supported the March 22 antique tea at the Port Macquarie CWA rooms.
They heard from guest speaker Alittle Antique proprietor Leonie Henderson.
She spoke about antiques, how to care for fine china and the some of the trios on display.
Mrs Henderson said the display was absolutely gorgeous.
It included an example of eggshell china and brands including Noritake and Royal Albert.
“You brought a beautiful array of cups, saucers and plates,” she said.
Mrs Henderson said she had a great love and appreciation of all things past from hat pins to exquisite old pieces of furniture.
The Port Macquarie CWA Branch fundraiser supported Endeavour Mental Health Recovery Clubhouse.
The clubhouse’s director Rob Moorehead spoke at the fundraiser.
“Your commitment to mental health over the last 12 months has been mind-boggling,” he said to the CWA members.
Representatives from Inner Wheel, Timeless Quilters, Let’s Dance Rock’n’Roll, Bellevue Gardens and Endeavour Fundraising Committee joined CWA members at the antique tea.
Event organiser Ruth Durrant said she was absolutely blown away by the response.
