Our Story

Etta Vintage is a vintage lifestyle brand founded in 2024 by Karina, following a long corporate career and a lifelong pull toward objects with history, soul, and intention.

Our mission is to help people design in ways that are joyful, sustainable, and uniquely their own.

The name Etta means keeper of the home and ruler of the hearth, and pays homage to Karina’s 95-year-old grandmother, whose love of rescuing forgotten objects shaped generations. She embodied a rare balance of strength and softness—an ethos that continues to guide the shop today.

With a focus on intentional sourcing, each object is chosen not just for how it looks, but how it makes a space feel—and the life it brings.

From the moment you step inside, Etta Vintage offers an intentional, cozy atmosphere with interest in every corner. The carefully curated selection includes vintage pieces for home and self, alongside thoughtfully sourced goods from local small brands and makers—each hand-selected by Karina, making Etta Vintage a truly one-of-a-kind retail experience.

Located in Karina's hometown of Ridgewood, New York—a historic neighborhood and thriving creative community—Etta Vintage is a space to slow down, discover, and feel inspired.

We can’t wait to welcome you.
