But, it seems that if an item is 25 years old or older it is vintage. 100 years old seems to be the norm when referring to antique. Either way, these treasures are wonderful. Thank you for sharing last week at TTF. Sorry I am so late visiting.

My mom had the candy dish in first pic, as well as, the 3rd and 4th picture below it! I think the ruby vase will look awesome with fall colors; looking forward to seeing it. : ) I had a green vase with the exact shape; wish I had kept it. : ) Have a good week!<br />BarbeBarbe @ Beez Rental Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095668448024915635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132521194361824092.post-17580558355954085372012-08-28T21:44:32.335-04:002012-08-28T21:44:32.335-04:00It is difficult to tell with glass and crystal, is...It is difficult to tell with glass and crystal, isn't it?

The other thing I've heard is that vintage describes anything that is between 25 and 50 years old. I know that antique refers to anything 50 years or older.

It's funny about vintage and how different people can have totally different views with regards to value. I had to laugh at my mom recently when she voiced her confusion over my desire to collect Corelle dishes. To her they wre common and easy to get and not treasured but to me, the old patterns are something to be saught after!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.loulou.to" rel="nofollow">Loulou</a>Loulouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13304074858377805437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132521194361824092.post-70532281686115953052012-08-27T20:27:12.570-04:002012-08-27T20:27:12.570-04:00same here, if I remember it from childhood or if m...same here, if I remember it from childhood or if my mum remembers it from her heydays, it's vintage! I consider 80s vintage too because people are beginning to collect 80s clothing and other stuff.<br /><br />I like to say I collect vintage clothing but lots of people assume that means things like the 50s circle dresses or 1940s suits. Which is all well and good but they're not my style and they're so expensive! So I go for the 60s and 70s clothing (not the loud stuff!) that ends up in Savers/Value Village and thrift stores, which are cheap and not often considered collectable :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132521194361824092.post-14027968853054729862012-08-27T20:01:30.848-04:002012-08-27T20:01:30.848-04:00I don't know what all is in that first picture...I don't know what all is in that first picture, but I like it all anyway!
