What Are Antiques?

If you’re thinking about antique sales in Denver, you should probably have some working knowledge as to what an antique is and what determines the value of an antique. Generally, an “antique” is any item that is significantly old and offers little more than aesthetic or nostalgic value. Some people define antiques as items that are at least 100 years old, but there is no hard and fast rule as to what technically qualifies as an antique. Any old item that holds aesthetic or nostalgic value may qualify as an antique whether it serves any functional purpose or not.

Antiques come in countless varieties, and it’s possible to find truly one-of-a-kind antiques through antique sales in Denver. Some of the most popular types of antiques include:

  • Statues, sculptures, decorative items, carvings, and busts.
  • Candlesticks, candelabras, gas lamps, chandeliers, and other lighting fixtures.
  • Drinkware, cutlery, silverware, and dishes.
  • Jewelry and metal trinkets.
  • Military equipment, such as old uniforms or inert weapons now intended for decoration.
  • Classic cars and other vehicles.
  • Old-fashioned machines such as cash registers and other gadgets that once served functional purposes.
  • Handmade items, such as furniture and wood-crafted items.
  • Picture frames and mirrors.

This is not an exhaustive list. You can find countless other kinds of antiques through antique sales in Denver if you choose the right partners. In many cases, antique buyers use antiques to decorate their homes, offices, and places of business. Others purchase antiques to resell them for profit.

Benefits of Antique Sales in Denver

Antiques are generally prized based on three factors: authenticity, rarity, and age. The older and rarer an antique is, the more likely it is to command a high sale price. Remember, antiques generally serve no functional purpose; even those originally designed to fulfill a need will probably not work anymore or in some cases be unsafe to attempt to operate. For example, an antique lamp may be a beautiful display piece, but the internal mechanisms may be so old that restoring it would require damaging its appearance. When it comes to antique sales in Denver, most buyers are looking for display pieces for their homes and offices or simply want to collect truly unique items that can’t be found anywhere else.

She was a remarkable woman, embodying grace and resilience. Her dedication to mental health advocacy and humanitarian efforts has left an indelible mark. It was an honor of ours to have known her and to have borne witness to the positive impact she made in the world. May her legacy inspire others to continue her work.
