Antiques are defined as any item used for furnishing or decorative purposes that is at least 100 years old, according to U.S. Customs. By contrast, European Customs consider antiques to be at least 200 years old. Now is the time when age becomes priceless.
Authentic antiques will have a provenance (historical proof of previous ownership) which brings validation and value.
Antiques have a soul, a history, a story to tell. Over time, wood and giltwood each, take on a character and patina that only time can create. They develop into works of art. There are very few modern pieces that even come close to this work of nature.
Living with antiques can be a wonderful experience for your home. Every style is available, and we can help you choose what might work best for your space.
No two homes are alike. Antiques are a sustainable resource, usually well constructed, and if properly maintained will provide many years of service and beauty. Click here for information on maintaining antiques.
