Online retailer of antiques, vintage, retro and collectibles.

Great for collectors, interior designers and lovers of things of beauty!

Note to customers: if you download the Spaces by Wix app, you will be able to search through my listings which should simplify the shopping experience for you! 

I established Happiness Through Nostalgia in February 2022. As a lifelong lover of antiques and collectibles since my student days, I have studied hard to increase my knowledge and gain expertise.

With a special love of glassware, solid silver items and collectible ceramics, I buy and sell a wide range of antique, vintage, retro and collectible pieces. 

I research each item extensively to identify the date, maker and other distinguishing features. If I am unable to be 100% accurate, I will indicate as much in my item listing. I also appreciate any feedback from potential buyers - if you spot something in a listing you think might be wrong, feel free to get in touch as I’m always happy to stand corrected!

I offer quality items at good prices and am always happy to connect with buyers, browsers and enthusiasts through my vibrant social media channels. 

My mission is to bring happiness to somebody every day - I love curating my collection of items and preparing them for sale to their new homes. It’s not just about business for me - it’s about fostering and nurturing the emotional attachments to objects which are beautiful, functional, quirky, unusual or all of the above! 

Please get in touch with me if you have any questions, enquiries or just want to talk through gift ideas or to find the perfect statement piece for an interior design project.

Shop with Confidence

Selling beautiful things to brighten up every day! 

Hi, I am Andrew, the owner and operator of Happiness through Nostalgia. I buy new stock regularly and update my store with a variety of interesting antique, vintage, retro and collectible pieces.

I buy items I think will appeal to buyers, but also things I just love - I am happy to own and care for them for as long as it takes until the right buyer comes along and falls in love! In terms of pricing, I have taken the decision to offer my “best price” immediately and to keep prices consistent across my channels. I try to keep prices as low as I can and believe myself to be competitive in this regard. 

I am happy to assist you in finding the right item at the right price to fit your budget and your needs. Maybe you’re looking for a perfect gift, or you have an interior design project on the go and want to find a statement piece? Whatever brought you here, I’m happy you found my store and ready to help in any way I can.

I am based in the glorious county of West Yorkshire in the UK and am happy to sell and ship worldwide. If you are local and make a purchase, you have the option to collect from my Queensbury location, or shipping is available (see item listings for prices.) The only time I’m not monitoring my store and my emails is when I’m sleeping, or walking the dog (my business partner!) so please feel free to get in touch and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
