Denby tend to produce the same range for decades.

The trouble with things that have been made for ages is that it may cease production just after you've bought some.
As Denby did ....in my case.
I think Marrakesh ran from about 1992 to 2006
If you can only buy what you want in sets at the moment? ;-)
There are some classic designs which are kept in production, but these are likely to be top end rather than daily wear.
Otherwise as you say buy some spares now. You can virtually guarantee the bits you have spares for will never get chipped.
BTSTGTTS ;-) I dropped a Marrakesh dinner plate and had to resort to ebay for a replacement
To be fair it was not my favourite of their designs, but someone bought us a couple of craftsman style mugs for a wedding present, and then later we got bought some more tableware in the same design since "we already had some like that". So the decision was made!
Still its has lasted exceedingly well after 20+ years - still looks pristine, nothing chipped, and the glaze is still in first class condition despite extensive dish washer exposure.
