The Real Treasure Of Vintage Jewellery
There is definitely something about owning vintage clothes and jewellery that feels special. It isn’t just because vintage styles are very much back in fashion this year, or that a lot of the time the clothes are of a better quality and fit than those you can buy in high street stores today. What makes old things so lovely are the personal stories behind them compared to modern silver jewellery, the fact that it’s not just an old dress or a pair of pearl earrings, but that once upon a time it really meant something to someone.
It’s why people are perfectly happy to pay such large amounts for items that once belonged to celebrities or important people, even when the item itself isn’t worth much.
Jewellery is of course one of the most personal things people own, and there is often an interesting story surrounding it, if you only knew how to discover it. A brooch might not look like it’s worth much, but if it’s one of my grandma’s pearl silver pendants, given to her during the war by my granddad who I never met, then to me it’s priceless. Even when you have no idea what the history of a piece is, it’s nice to imagine who might have owned it and what it might have meant to them in their lives – was it a birthday or engagement present, or did it symbolise to them an important moment in their life? It’s like when you move in to an old house, when you wish that you could find out who has lived there before you through the years and what sort of lives they had there. It’s my opinion that whether the vintage look stays fashionable or whether it doesn’t, people will never stop loving old things.
