Welcome to Something Vintage, your go-to destination for exquisite vintage finds! Something Vintage is an online antique store for lovers of smaller vintage treasures, including decorations, accessories, tableware and notebooks. I handpick every item with care to ensure that only the finest pieces grace the online store. The constantly changing range consists of antiques that are over 100 years old and also more contemporary pieces from the 70s to 90s.
Each piece in the collection is preloved and has enjoyed its fair share of use. This may result in signs of wear. While I strive to highlight any potential defects in the product description, I encourage you to carefully read through the entire listing before purchasing.
Flea markets have been a cherished part of my life since childhood. Delving into the stories behind each piece and imagining their past adventures has always fascinated me. The idea of founding an online store for antiques also arose at a flea market. Witnessing elderly vendors, with no one to inherit their treasures, discard unsold goods stirred something within me. With limited space to house all the treasures myself, I felt compelled to create an online haven where these pieces could find new homes. Thus, my journey of curating and sharing vintage treasures began, fuelled by a passion for preserving history and giving these beloved items a chance to continue their story.
With Something Vintage, I would like to spark interest and joy in vintage and relieve the environment of frequent new purchases. I aim to showcase the beauty of secondhand shopping and make it more accessible to everyone. By choosing secondhand, you not only craft unique home decor but also contribute to environmental conservation. Let’s celebrate the beauty of vintage while making a positive impact on our planet!
There is also another exciting project going on. By rescuing old books in poor condition, I salvage their damaged hard covers and transform them into stunning vintage notebooks, journals, and sketchbooks. My goal is to prevent these books from meeting their demise in landfills. Alongside my passion for secondhand shopping, I am deeply committed to upcycling. The upcycled notebooks are perfect for everyone who is already journaling or would like to start with this routine. These individual notebooks will be your best companion for writing down and organizing your thoughts every day.
My goal is to reduce packaging waste to a minimum. Therefore, I only use recycled materials or materials that already exist for packaging. This allows me to keep existing resources in circulation for as long as possible. The shipping cartons and the filling are made from recycled paper, you can reuse them or dispose of them in the waste paper. I use bubble wrap made of recycled plastic to protect the items. I also provide low-waste shipping within Europe.
