Many people like things that smell brand new and can be unwrapped from plastic, meaning in reality, they just add to pollution of our planet. But some people specifically prefer the items that have been touched by history and are commonly referred to as antiques.

Antique objects often bear an extra value thanks to their aesthetic or historical significance, and they can be defined as any object which is at least 100 years old. Meanwhile, vintage and collectibles are described as items that are “younger” than that.

And while some are born antique aficionados, real collectors spend their entire lives learning the subtleties of this miscellaneous profession. Below are some of the most incredible examples of antique objects and goods posted on the r/Antiques subreddit, where every member of the community is an antique dealer at heart.

    300 Year Old Library Tool That Enabled A Researcher To Have Seven Book Open At Once

    300 Year Old Library Tool That Enabled A Researcher To Have Seven Book Open At Once

    Alexaalexa97 Report

    Bored Panda reached out to Dr. Lori Verderame, the Ph.D. antiques appraiser who’s an internationally syndicated columnist and an author with 30 books to her credit. Dr. Lori specializes in helping people make money with buying and selling tips, as well as showing them how to spot valuables at thrift stores, charity shops, flea markets, estate sales, etc. and flip them for profit. She also runs a widely popular YouTube channel with 130k subscribers where she shares various tips about antiques.

    Dr. Lori explained that “an antique is an object that is 100 years old or older. I determine antique status by looking at materials, condition, and design. I appraise an antique's value by comparing it with other similar items and using my decades of museum and appraisal experience to provide a value,” the antiques appraiser commented.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Turns out, Lori bases her values on actual sales records where similar items have sold recently. “I use my love of antiques to appraise value and value differs based on the type of object appraised. Many factors determine value depending on the type of object presented,” she explained and added that the most valuable categories of antiques typically include fine art, antique furniture, and antique and vintage fine and costume jewelry.

    When asked if people are getting more and more interested in antiques, Dr. Lori confirmed that it’s true and added that young adults are particularly interested. “Because we can buy all types of antiques with ease now online, people are enjoying the thrill of the treasure hunt for antiques as well as the excitement of selling them or keeping them.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “I show many examples of how I find the money for people on my YouTube channel series called Real Bargains. Young adults—my fans—are interested in antiques and vintage items because they are well-made, unique and interesting, and are conversation pieces,” she said.

    “Many realize that they can buy a vintage or antique object for very little money and use my tips to flip for profit or keep it for their own collection and enjoyment. Many people are interested in antiques because of the memories they spark or for the connection to a bygone era,” Dr. Lori concluded.

    When I was in high-school one science class visited a uranium mine!!! The man who gave them the tour (?!) Had worked there for many years and his voice sounded like Daffy Duck. When they left the mine they were given a little memento to take with them. A pill bottle size of uranium dust. Its yellow in color incase you were wondering. They brought it to class, and our science teacher's husband was a geologist who had a Geiger Counter. She brought it to school the next day and measured the stuff. 😵😲 Oh boy, was it radioactive ☢! Called her husband immediately. He came to the school immediately to confiscate it. He called the appropriate government department. Needless to say, no more souvenirs.

    My great-grandfather took photos like these. (They're actually postcards). We still have a picture of his daughter (my paternal grandmother) dressed up in a Statue of Liberty costume. (We're Australian of English heritage, so not sure why she was dressed up in an "American" costume, but still. That story has long disappeared - she died in 1987 and the picture was taken in the early 1910s - can't recall the exact year, but she was about 12).

They may look nice now, but they were a pain in the tuchas to work with, especially when using carbon paper to make copies.

    The "Swastika" emblem is an ancient hindu good fortune icon and nothing to do with Nazi propaganda; that came later and was a perversion of it's true meaning. It is quite appropriate here.

    Take the plants off it!!! Even with the saucers and the rug (hopefully) preventing direct spills, you are creating a microhumid climate which will do terrible things to the wood in the long run.
