Crockery disposed of in tenders (6,3)
I believe the answer is:
dinner set
'crockery' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'disposed of in tenders' is the wordplay.
'disposed of' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in'+'tenders'='intenders'
'intenders' anagrammed gives 'DINNER-SET'.
(Other definitions for dinner set that I've seen before include "Complete service of plates and dishes for a meal" , "Table service" , "Plates etc" , "crockery" , "might be taken out for a meal" .)
