Antique things have an appreciation and worth. Something can be old, but it can be timeless; therefore, it becomes an antique. If this antique is preserved and deemed precious, it could be passed down as a family heirloom.

I'm the oldest antique in town.

Our admiration of the antique is not admiration of the old, but of the natural.

Even if you have $20,000 to buy an item, you still try to get a good price at antique stores. I collect furniture, rugs, paintings, frames. It's my hobby to go around to shops and markets.

I collect antiques. Why? Because they're beautiful.

I still like my antique clothes.

I tend to like antique things. Something can be old, but it can be timeless.

Remember that the most valuable antiques are dear old friends.

I don't have any artifacts of my profession in my house; the Oscar is in storage.

On the other hand, I don't understand the enthusiasm for everything in the antique shop that Grandma threw out. There, the sense of quality has declined; otherwise Grandma wouldn't have thrown it out.
