Antiques (Latin antiquus, old) are objects which have reached an age which makes them a witness of a previous era in human society. Antiques are usually objects which show some degree of craftsmanship, or society, an antique is above all an object whose atypical construction and age give it a market value superior to similar objects of recent manufacture.
The definition of antique varies from source to source, product to product and year to year. But, some time-tested definitions of antique deserve consideration:
An item which is at least 100 years old and is collected or desirable due to rarity, condition, utility, or some other unique feature. Motor vehicles, tools and other items subject to vigorous use in contrast, may be considered antiques in the U.S. if older than 25 years, and some electronic gadgets of more recent vintage may be considered antiques.
