For winemakers, "vintage" is a wine that has lain in the cellar for many years and has only now acquired an unrivaled taste. For musicians - an old instrument that still sounds good. Musical gourmets enjoy the sounds of unique jazz pieces with the help of vintage equipment, thanks to which you can listen to rare records in high quality. And modern women of fashion wear a bright rock'n'roll dress with a bow on her belt, calling it vintage. All these concepts unite the twentieth century and good quality.
In the interior design, too, the concept of "vintage", which refers to the combination of old things with modern ones, took root. This style in the interior is also known as "shabby elegance" and is characterized by the presence in the house of old elements of furniture, accessories and trinkets that create a slightly careless romantic atmosphere with a touch of nostalgia.
