Old-timey décor pieces certainly have a level of aesthetic charm to them. I don’t know if it’s thanks to the well-worn, well-loved look or if it’s just their inherently classy vibe.
One thing’s for sure, though. Victorian, Edwardian, Tudor, modern… whatever period or century they’re from, vintage antiques add a ton of character to any room.
If you’re looking for select statement pieces to create an interesting space, here are some oldies-but-goldies CC items to help you out!
I will admit; this looks more like a modern-contemporary décor version of an old-timey clock.
But since either option still fits with the theme of this list, I’m keeping it here.
Also, the wood texture coupled with the rounded-diamond shape makes this one heck of a unique clock. It’d be a shame not to use it in at least one build.
3. Updated Chandelier + Classy Dress Mannequin by pocci
I am very much aware that the stuff here looks like it belongs on the set of a horror movie. Probably something involving an abandoned Victorian mansion that no one’s ever purchased.
Regardless, a classy dress mannequin and an ostentatious crystal chandelier are as vintage as they come.
How do you like your coffee? Sweet, black, or served in a fifties-to-sixties floral mug?
This cute Vintage Coffee Set by wirefiish makes the perfect centerpiece for a retro-themed kitchen and/or dining space.
Aside from the funky-fresh flower patterns, the other design swatches come from the creator’s own Back to Basics palette—beautiful muted colors with dots, stripes, and checkered squares galore.
This lovely CC clutter pack by Severinka_ is exactly what the doctor (or, in this case, the Sims builder?) ordered.
A small, sweet set of antique décor that can add so much character to an otherwise understated room.
There are eight decorative items in this pack, including (but not limited to): a single, delicate rose, a beautifully engraved jewelry box, and – my personal favorite – a stack of lovingly preserved, hand-written letters.
This pack is a mix of decorative clutter and furniture.
None of them are usable, but they’re more than enough to fill and decorate empty corners.
There are a total of fourteen items in here, and they all have that appealing, old-fashioned feel. It’s a mix of rustic, a little brittle (with age), and distinctly faded.
The items here aren’t as old as some of the others on this list.
In fact, this CC set feels like it falls between the late 90s to early 2000s.
What keep it distinctly retro are the (functional!) record player and the matching retro ‘tunes posters. The guitars, lamp, and rug could still be considered retro, but only with the right (neon) color combos.
This book is a part of Severinka_’s Tea in the Garden set.
It’s a simple, classically-themed dining set reminiscent of old Victorian tea parties held on sprawling garden grounds. Of all the items, I found this decorative book to have the most old-fashioned charm, so I decided to include it.
I mean, come on; it’s got the yellowed pages, faded postcards, and pressed-flowers going for it!
Heavy adfly warning for this one, but it’s definitely worth it!
This creator always puts out such high-quality stuff packs. See; this beautiful vintage clutter set as proof. The goods include some vinyl records, a gorgeous wooden radio (with the cool carved-out patterns) and a classic dial-phone.
What was once a practical, functional piece of technology is now a decorative antique. Part of ShinoKCR’s Art Nouveau set, this worn, aged typewriter is a beautiful reminder of just how far (and how fast!) technology has evolved.
It’s also a gorgeous space filler for teak-wood desks.
16. Mid Century Modern Collection Clutter by ArwenKaboom
Cast-iron pots, little tin cans, striped teacups, and black-and-white photos in grainy picture frames.
It’s a mid-century aesthetic embellished with modern elements and textures, and I think the creator did a fantastic job of incorporating that concept in this TS4 clutter pack.
17. Office Space – A MidCentury Office Set by Surely-Sims
This set from Surely-Sims takes out the modern and just goes full old-school. The resulting visuals are stunning.
Who knew that the liberal use of woods, colored metals, and heavy-duty plastic coupled with the charming professional palette of the 50s and 60s could create such an aesthetically pleasing set?
This (functional!) turntable is part of the creator’s Ayane set—a brightly-colored living room pack full of vibrant posters, candy-colored coffee tables, and some worn-but-soft-looking floor rugs.
The whole set does have a bit of a vintage vibe to it, but it could also easily pass as more modern with the right colors and accessories.
This turntable, however, brings the set – and perhaps any room it’s in – all the way back to the 60s.
