There are times when we may have some older items around the house. We don’t necessarily use them all of the time, but we do love pulling them out on occasion and giving them a once-over.
Some people call these items antiques, and others call them vintage, but regardless of what you call them, they are often nostalgic, and they really make us think about the way things were back then. Perhaps that is the real beauty of having them around.
These vintage items often age gracefully, and they sometimes even get more beautiful as the years pass by. That is why we are sharing these pictures with you, because you will see that these items are not older; they are better.
1. “My grandmother got this in Germany in the 50’s or 60’s. It is now mine, but I honestly don’t know what it is. It’s beautiful.”
2. “Look at this 1960s-era Oscar De La Renta mink coat.”
3. “My grandma has owned these glasses for 36 years. It turns out that they are unsolid gold with ruby.”
4. “A 1920s uranium necklace. It glows a bright, almost opaque green when placed under UV light.”
5. “My 1970s dress collection thus far!”
