My grandmother died when I was in college, so when my family was going through her things, I was in a prime position to take practical items like pots and pans back to school to use in my off-campus apartment. One of the items I took was a set of six water glasses with orange flowers on them. I didn’t know they were special.
It wasn’t until later, when I started to learn about the charms and value of vintage collectibles, that I realized they were 1960s Culver Ltd. glasses—a set that will now sell for $100 or more. I cringe when I think back to how my roommates and I all used them for heavy day-to-day use. At least I had the presence of mind to know that we couldn’t put them in the dishwasher. I’m much more careful with them now.
But that’s the thing about vintage collectibles—they tell a story, and they have history. Whether your style of farmhouse is cool and modern or full and eclectic, vintage pieces are at the heart of what makes farmhouse style special. They connect you to the tradition of the past—the history of your family, your city or your country. They add that unique, one-of-a-kind feel to your home that makes it truly yours.
