About us

FROM UNCLE VINNY was my mother’s creation. From my childhood, she would give extra presents to family on holidays, things that she found at thrift stores & garage sales. These gifts were handpicked for the recipient, & we always enjoyed opening them. She would sign the tag from “Uncle Vinny”, after St. Vincent de Paul’s endearing nickname, St. Vinny’s.

Uncle Vinny performed his gift-giving duties under my mother’s tutelage for 50 years. Some relatives have known his presence all their lives: one cousin grew up w/o ever learning the truth behind our second Santa Claus, & she reached adulthood believing that we had some strange, distant uncle who sent us used presents!

Today, my family still occasionally takes up Uncle Vinny’s mantle, bestowing thrifted gifts to each other in his name. I carry on the tradition in my own way, reselling vintage treasures I find at the same places mom and I used to shop together. Uncle Vinny lives on.

I hope Uncle Vinny has the perfect gift here 4 you!

    I have never had an item as beautifully packaged as these mugs. They had a foam protector around the handles, were bubble wrapped and put in a sturdy cardboard box. Great Job! The shipping was reasonably priced. The item was better than described. The mugs looked brand new. Much nicer in person. Maxwell Williams makes wonderful china, so the value was great, too.
