An antique is an item which is at least 50 to 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.

How old do u think furniture have to be considered as antique?

I have always been told that anything that lasts longer than 25 years is considered an antique. Of course condition of the item is of importance too because if it is damaged, it loses it's value.
