An antique store is a retail establishment that specializes in selling items that are considered to be antiques. Antiques are objects that are at least 100 years old and have some value due to their age, rarity, condition or craftsmanship. Antique stores typically sell a wide variety of items including furniture, pottery, glassware, textiles, jewelry, clocks, and decorative arts. These items can range from inexpensive knick-knacks to high-end pieces that are worth thousands of dollars. Shopping at an antique store is a great way to find unique and one-of-a-kind items for your home or office, while also supporting small businesses.
