Decorating ideas: Vintage trophies and brass bookcases

...the perfect accessories for a regal room.
Works perfectly against black walls + white walls alike.
I am just completely in love with the look.

I shop often at an antique shop in Marblehead, MA. Great items, but whenever I go to reach for one of the vintage trophies in one of her "for sale" vignettes, she always tells me they are not for sale. Frustrating! I love the look of them in displays and I am determined to break her down some day to sell me one or two :-)

Thanks for sharing these photos.

This is an awesome way to display awards. On a bookcase... I like it:)

I love trophies! There's a white ceramic one I've been eyeing at my local HomeGoods that I might have to pick up now. Thanks for the inspiration :)

I am loving myself a vintage trophy...tried to find some to turn into lamps for the living room but found some furbish ones instead...thansk for reminding me that I need to invest in a trophy moment somehow still!

Brass bookshelves - that's something I've never come across in UK interior design! It certainly brings something fresh and different to a room's vintage design, an interesting move away from wood or glass and an extra kick of colour.
