REASONS TO BUY VINTAGE AND ANTIQUE GOODS
1.Connect you to History
The romance to have a piece of history is appealing and has a sense of significance and meaning.
2.Eco-Friendly and Ethical
By reusing an older piece , you are helping to lessen the demand for new products to be created. The extraction of raw materials to create new products contributes to pollution and exploitation. You are making a more ethical choice by buying vintage.

4.Unique

5.Timeless Designs
Some designs have an appeal that never grows old. Choosing a timeless design for something that you are going to have, or handing down to your children just makes sense.
6.High Quality
Vintage and antique goods come from a time before mass production. Many of these pieces are handmade with a level of intricacy and attention to detail that is hard to find today.
I sell antique and vintage collectible stuff - unique items that have history,  and may show signs of this - it is part of their charm. I try to describe any  obvious faults as truthfully as I can. However, as most of my items are 100  years old, they will often bear the traces of a previous life. Please think carefully about bidding if you are looking for a pristine item that is as new.  My passion is for beautiful antique stuff and quirky vintage items with a gently  faded grandeur, so do consider this before deciding to bid.
