Pronounced BeeDee Fay.

Named in memory of my Grandmothers; Bede Fay reflects my family’s heritage of quirkiness, love for oddities, appreciation for the beauty in Earth’s creations, and objets d’art.

Bede (nickname for Beatrice) and Fay have passed on but they left a legacy for the love of hunting and gathering pretty things.

Grandma Bede taught me to find sea glass as soon as I could walk. Grandma Fay would plunk us down with her 1940s rhinestone button collections for the afternoon.

I think both women would have enjoyed rummaging through the piles of my various collections, and they would have applauded sharing via selling instead of just keeping it all for myself.

This is a new website (launched July, 2023) but I am not a new business owner.

My name is Amanda and I have been selling vintage clothing online since 1999. I opened my first brick and mortar store in 2008 and have since operated 7 different storefronts. I am the Founder and President of Bulk Vintage Clothing, Inc., a wholesale company, based in Philadelphia, PA. I have always been a collector and while we do sell sterling and costume jewelry, and some crystals, in our retail location and wholesale warehouse, I have a tendency to buy it if I see it (meaning we have a lot of inventory). This website is the first step to starting a sister company, and hopefully Bede Fay will occupy its own storefront soon as well.
