Absolutely stunning. I adore Holt Howard and have always wanted some HH Christmas decorations. The Tree Girl is beautifully made and the attention to detail is incredible, even down to the vintage styled box she is packaged in.

Absolutely superb quality, it is such a high-quality reproduction… Just look at the reproduction light next to the original salt and pepper that inspired it.

The Tree Girl candle light is even nicer in person. She will look stunning with my mid-century ceramic Xmas tree this upcoming holiday season.

The Retro Revival hallmarks

How to spot one of ours

True to the originals

We bring back the mid-century pieces collectors hunt for, faithful in shape, face, and paint, in the spirit of makers like Holt Howard. A few designs are brand-new originals of our own.

Real gold paint

The stars, swirls, and trim use genuine gold metallic paint. It catches candlelight the way the originals did.

Numbered small batches

We produce in small runs with a specialty ceramic partner. When an edition sells through, the price goes up or the piece retires.

Cordless glow

Flip the switch underneath and the candle lights up. No cords to hide, and the button cell battery comes in the box.

Hello, old friend

Yesterday's treasures, made for today

Retro Revival started with a collector's problem. The holiday ceramics we grew up with got rare, fragile, and pricey. Many of them live in boxes now, too precious to put out.

So we bring them back. We study the shapes, faces, and painted details collectors love, then make pieces sturdy enough for the mantel and charming enough for the cabinet. Most are faithful revivals of the classics. A few are originals we dreamed up in the same spirit.

Retro Revival is the house brand of Kinks & Quirks, drawing on 20 years of hunting vintage treasures. Every piece earns Quirks Perks rewards points.

Merry collecting!
