I just discovered Erie Basin (via Design*Sponge), a shop based in Red Hook, New York, which sells the coolest antique items. I love their philosophy and collection. Just browsing on their online shop makes you feel like you’re scoping out your hip great aunt’s surprisingly super modern attic! I want to buy everything!
The store’s objective is to collect early 19th and 20th century items with contemporary stylistic and cultural “relevance.” I found that it’s a great place for very modern bridal accessories.
This beautiful antique hair comb would complement any simple updo.
1890s Crescent Horn Hair Comb, $50
Or brides looking for brooches will find a very interesting selection here. Definitely different from what you see in bridal shops!
Brooch, $65
1890s Cut Steel Arrow Brooch, $85
Erie Basin also showcases jewelry from various designers.
This would make a great wedding band.
Conroy + Wilcox 18K Pearl Ring, $440
