Vintiquities

-A word to describe a combination of vintage, retro, antiques, shabby chic, and junking styles.

-Old cast off things from past lives that show the wear of ages.

-Flea Market Junk

-Mixed Media Artworks that incorporate old found objects.

-reused, re-purposed, and altered from a vintage state.

-period clothing and jewelry refashioned for new use.

Vintiquities can be things with chippy paint, old millinery hats that smell of moth balls, things made pre-1960's, items that have a bit of rust, and things from the bottom of grandma's old trunk.
