If you’re a fan of comebacks, the Mumbai Mix Team has a trendy list of must-have vintage artefacts for the collector in you
We love vintage products. Whether they’re clothes, accessories, makeup or, as in this case, home décor, we’re big fans of classy artefacts from a bygone era. We use them to add a little old world charm to our space, make an area indoors look more ornate or simply to enhance an already rustic vibe. If you don’t already have family heirlooms and old furnishings, buying into the vintage trend can sometimes seem heavy on the pocket, but there are several collectibles or items that mimic these collectibles that you can pick up at affordable prices across the city. Bring this style into your home with a few of our favourite picks.
