Smart Antiquing Tips
Shop with function in mind. Prioritize pieces that work hard in modern homes, such as mirrors, lighting, side tables, benches, and chests. Measure before you buy and photograph your space for reference. Look for solid construction and honest patina over perfection. One strong antique adds character without clutter and layers effortlessly with contemporary furnishings.
