Quote

“Vintage Charlotte is about highlighting the incredibly amazing things going on right here in Charlotte. Every item you find here is either hand selected or expertly made. In supporting these vendors we are supporting the artistic vibrancy and economic viability of our local community. Every item has a story: not only do you get to see these incredible goods, but you get to be face to face with the folks who discover or make them.” – Amy Herman, Founder of Vintage Charlotte
