Art is a luxury item among vintage gifts. It doesn’t have a practical purpose. It can’t slice carrots or polish silver or hold books. It exists to be appreciated. It started with an idea and was crafted by hand. Each piece is one of a kind.
Vintage art not only has patina, it showcases a style from the past. When you own vintage art, you are less its owner and more its steward. You have it now to appreciate, like someone did before you and likely someone will after you.
Here are some favorite pieces we found to inspire you while you make your list of vintage gifts.
