Inherited?

From what I've found on Google, the meaning of the vocab "inherited" is the money, property, or a title received as an heir at the death of the previous holder. For example, inherited wealth from parent.

However, I'd like to describe something worthy given to me by my elder member of my family but they are not dead. What is another more appropriate vocabulary that can be used?

A family heirloom can be "passed down" from father to son.

Slightly related -- clothes can be "handed down," say, from an older child to a younger child. At that point they are called "hand-me-downs." Someone might say "As the youngest of six children, I never got new clothes from the store -- only hand-me-downs."

As shown. A vocabulary is a entire group of words. A person who knows how to use a great number of words has a large vocabulary.
