FABULOUS VINTAGE FROM LOS ANGELES
Wayne DeSelle is the owner of Los Fabulous and an avid vintage collector. He started early, collecting American midcentury modern dinnerware right out of college. Since then his appreciation and knowledge of vintage has gradually expanded, and he's learned to love the whole range of vintage design — finding beauty and inspiration in everything from the most ornate Victorian pieces to the sleekest of minimalist designs. He thinks it all can be fabulous as long as you love it.
After moving houses in 2011 Wayne realized he had run out of room to store even one more piece of vintage dinnerware. In short, he needed to make space if he was going to retain his sanity, and he started selling his collectibles online. He combined his love of fine vintage design with his passion for compelling photography — gained as a long-time magazine art director — to produce a finely curated collection of beautiful vintage pieces, presented beautifully. Once he started selling he realized that bringing people together with great vintage was exciting and fulfilling. So, in the time between working on print publications, he hunts for great finds in the hopes of offering something that's just perfect for someone else who appreciates fabulous vintage.

SHIPPING POLICIES
DAMAGED ITEMS
If an item arrives damaged, please contact us first before filing a claim with the carrier.
INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
Even when not specifically listed, rates for international shipments are available for most items to many countries. Please inquire before buying and in your email furnish your full address (for rate calculation) and contact info. Nearly all international shipping will be via US Priority or First Class Mail to local mail, and time and costs vary widely by country and package type. In most cases packages must go through local customs and any costs or tariffs are the responsibility of the recipient. We can ship FedEx and UPS, but they often cost substantially more for international recipients.
RETURNS
Your satisfaction is very important to us. We make every effort to accurately describe items and their overall condition through both photos and words. We welcome you to ask as many questions as you would like beforehand—we are honest and as detailed as possible in our descriptions but are happy to provide more information. Please keep in mind that we only sell vintage items, and they carry with them reminders of their previous lives and loves—it's part of what gives them their charm.
With that in mind, returns are accepted only if the item was misrepresented by an inaccurate listing. In that case a full refund will be given, with buyer to pay return shipping. Please contact us as soon as possible as the item must be received by us within one week after it was delivered.
