Antiques satisfy our natural want to feel connected to the past, to believe in a story, and to imbue our surroundings with a sense of history. Saturday strolls frequently lead to the local flea market or antiques store, where a hidden gem captures one's heart at first sight. Some people are fortunate enough to receive antiques from their forefathers and mothers, while others consider themselves collectors, scouring auction houses for the perfect piece. A well-crafted dresser or dining table will survive today's and tomorrow's fast-paced trends, and humans have a sweet spot for objects that have outlasted them. Objects aged 100 years or more are classified as antiques, whereas anything older than 20 years is considered vintage. Decorating with antiques and old furniture, on the other hand, is a unique way to express yourself.
