Vintage jewelry has been on the rise for the past five years, while items like vintage clothing were just falling back out of fashion. What exactly makes a piece of jewelry, vintage, and why is it that the stars are flocking to get their hands on a piece?
Vintage jewelry usually is defined by being at least twenty years old or more. These prior-era pieces can be originals, or reconstructed in some way. Newer designers such Bonnie Sedan, have taken the opportunity to up-cycle older materials, therefore creating jewelry with vintage metal or stonework within it. In Bonnie Sedan's line, Pinky Elodie, most all pieces are upcycled with use of recycled materials, vintage brass and vintage coppers.
Some celebs collect vintage pieces, while others choose to get proper wear out of them. The amount of artisan jewelers that create vintage pieces is rare, but the ones that do, like Pinky Elodie, keep their prices fair. Check out some websites and get your vintage piece of jewelry today!
