Dominio
Dominio - vintage cufflinks Dominio has possibly Amsterdam’s largest selection of vintage cufflinks dating from as far back as the 1890's up until the 1980's. In all, the impressive collection includes over 180 different pairs of cufflinks from the very sophisticated to the omnipresent designs of the 1970's. The cufflinks are typically made from beautiful materials such as gold, silver, ebony, mother of pearl, tiger’s eye and onyx. Each pair of vintage cufflinks is wonderfully crafted by both unknown craftsmen and well-known artists such as modernist designer Karl Schibensky and Fish design from Germany and Jenssen from Denmark. Cufflinks date from as far back as the 17th century when men desired something more elegant for their shirts than ribbons or ties to hold together their cuffs. The first cufflink consisted of a small chain fastened to the end of a gold or silver button and fed through the holes of the cuff to keep it together. Over time, the cufflink became a more sophisticated part of a man's wardrobe, especially when accompanying a tuxedo and/or formal attire. Using varying types of stone, precious metals, fabrics and design, the cufflink gradually became an essential part of the modern man's wardrobe.

Hand embroidered vintage cushion covers Jessica Padt - vintage cushions These highly unusual unique vintage cushions make a great gift idea. The second hand markets of Europe were the inspiration for Jessica Padt to begin creating her sought after vintage cushions. It was at these markets that she first found the beautiful embroidered vintage fabrics which provide the centrepiece around which her vintage cushions are built. The embroidery is always done by hand generally by an unknown master of this ancient art. The end product is a unique vintage cushion, usually down-filled, and each one is finished to the highest quality standards. The cushions generally measure 50cm x 50cm and are all hand produced by Jessica in her atelier in Amsterdam’s Jordaan.

Laura Dols
Laura Dols - vintage bridalwear What drives the demand for Vintage wedding dresses? Laura Dols comments “Sometimes today’s brides just want to spend money on more important things than an insanely expensive wedding dress that they will wear only once. When you consider that a brand new custom made silk wedding dress can cost between €3,000 and €5,000 whereas we sell our vintage bridal dresses for between €150 and €200 on average”. Sound interesting? Becoming a vintage bride is an option that is attracting more and more brides-to-be with a fun attitude to life. They recognise the quality of the product, which is fantastic in relation to the price. The Laura Dols collection of vintage wedding dresses is of the highest quality, the dresses are generally custom-made in the finest of silks. They come in every size and shape. If you are lucky enough to find one that fits, it can prove to be an excellent deal. Alternatively, the dresses can always be altered or used as a base on which to build a certain bridal look. And of course, a good tailor can work wonders… Laura Dols welcomes you to drop by and have a look around. At the very least, it’s a great start to getting ideas of what style you want for your big day!
