Welcome to Ruby & Mathilda, a mother-daughter shop.
Hello! My name is Ivy, the shop owner and creator of Ruby & Mathilda Vintage.
Ruby & Mathilda offers authentic, wearable and affordable vintage, with versatility and diversity in mind. We do our best to provide a positive experience with great service, safe shipping and transparent communication.
Ruby & Mathilda are my great-grandmother and 2nd great-grandmother. Mathilda, the daughter of a farmer, was a young woman at the turn of the century, seeing the inventions of the telephone, electricity and radio. Ruby, her daughter, grew up as a young girl during the Great Depression and experienced the turmoil of WWII as a war wife. These women represent the women of their time: strong, hardworking and resilient.
We love vintage because it tells a story - these items can speak in their own way, you just have to listen. We source primarily from the Victorian era to the 1940's, but may have an occasional newer (still secondhand or NOS) piece that retains the timeless look of older, authentic items. In our shop you will find some of the charming vintage items we've gathered, carefully repaired, gently cleaned, photographed and listed, ready to be adored once again. We hope you enjoy spending time at our shop and find something you love!
