The Modern Heirloom: Why Vintage-Inspired Jewelry Is Making a Comeback
By Emily Henderson • Nov 5
Today, vintage-inspired jewelry is experiencing a powerful revival — not as a nostalgic throwback, but as a modern statement of individuality.
Designers are drawing inspiration from Victorian filigree, Art Deco symmetry, and Edwardian elegance while incorporating contemporary craftsmanship and durability. The result? Pieces that feel storied yet wearable for everyday life.
Consumers are increasingly choosing jewelry that feels meaningful. Instead of chasing trends, many are investing in pieces that can be passed down for generations.
Whether it’s a milgrain engagement ring, an antique-style locket, or a bold signet ring, modern heirlooms offer something rare in today’s world: permanence.
Jewelry should not only sparkle — it should endure.

Really Good Affordable Or Splurge-Worthy Lamps
FLUTED LAMP WITH WOODEN BASE
$110
SCALLOP DOLORES TABLE LAMP
$299
Y’all, there are a lot of lamps out there – many really, really good ones (although honestly so many seem to be over $200 these days, which is pretty wild). I really fell in love with all of these and tried to keep them affordable.
Wood and Fabric Shade Lamp: The grain of the wood with the shape of the wavy shade makes this so pretty, and still really easy to mix into almost any style. Very elevated for the price.
Blue Scallop Lamp: I love the playfulness and whimsy of this Schoolhouse lamp (and it comes in a few different colors and as a sconce).

Traviata Table Lamp: When you think you’ve seen every lamp…Sezane did it.
Handmade Striped Lamp: I have and adore this lamp by a local maker. Support small!!

Both of these lamps make such a statement for the lower price point. Hang the paper lamp in a corner to engage it, pull your eye over, AND add a really pretty ambient light. The black base is so sculptural, graphic, and will edge up any room (and every room needs a hit of black – and I promise this can be mixed with more traditional design).
