Oh my dear! You must tell him that he has earned his wings with
lacemakers and as a reward, he now has the opportunity to make new
stands for lacemakers from all over the world!!! You may want to ease
his anxiety by telling him that his requests will be very manageable,
given our very shallow

It has always been my experience when re-entering the U.S. that items
Customs allows as antiques must be 100 years old to qualify. Therefore, I
think of all items over 100 as being antique. As the years have flown by, my
collection of "vintage" has become antique!

I spend most of my lace time learning the old, traditional lace forms. Bucks,
Tonder, Torchon, Flanders, Duchesse, Withof, and in the future, Beds and
Binche. This is the second time in two days I have had my horizons expanded by
what can be done with the medium by such creative people. Thank
How very exciting that two Americans won awards, including the top
prize!! I don't know how the judges managed to choose, because there
were s many wonderful pieces entered.
Thanks, Laurie, for keeping us informed!

To add to the confusion about terminology, in the US, "antique" can mean
anything over 50 years old. This may apply only to cars (where over 25
is "vintage"), but I have a niggling suspicion that it applies to other
things as well. So when US sellers use these terms, they may be accurate.

Hi Spiders,
I agree with Nath that antiques should be 100 year or more old. If it is
less but not of the present era it should be vintage. Sometimes Antique and
Vintage are misused by traders in the hope of making more money by stating
something is antique when it is not. Buyer beware! There i
In the UK, an antique has to be over 100 years old. So currently anything
before 1911 is classed as antique.
Old and vintage are both open to interpretation - could be 50 years old,
could be last week. Could be related to the expected life of the item, or
could be totally a personal view.

I have noticed these labels being thrown about and was wondering what
the differences are. I particularly noticed it on ebay. I always
assumed antique is for anything at least 100 years old. Vintage would
be for something less than 100 years old? Am I wrong?
Greetings
Nath
