About Brand: OASIS OBSCURA
Name comes from: I grew up in the deserts of Southern California and I’ve always loved and cherished water. One of my favorite things to do is hike and wade in the sacred waters of the surrounding Native American lands of my hometown (Agua Caliente).
Inspired by: An Oasis is a dreamscape, an oasis is fantasy, and a transcension of time and space. I want my second hand items to help people feel zen and happy, and to encourage choosing a lifestyle of sustainability and minimalism.
Why you started: Finding the right vintage piece for your unique home is kismet. Finding your oddity is a magical experience and should be available for all budgets and people.
Where you are heading: 100% sustainability. Selling only 100% secondhand items, these pieces are both unique and good for the Earth. My goal is to make vintage affordable for all and to keep our planet green while embracing design, retro home decor, and iconic mid century pieces.
Explain to your grandma what you do: I sell rare treasures and trinkets at a friendly price!
About Life:
Bored if: I’m not moving
Feel like dancing if: I make someone smile
Hungry for: food, always
Excited when: I meet new people and go new places
