Antiques have endless appeal when it comes to interior design. No matter the piece, an antique has a unique charm and individuality that almost always gives a room patina, grandeur, and a sense of eclecticism. Their mere age and artisanal nature are enough to make a scheme feel more elevated, not to mention their ability to nod to your tastes as a collector. While an antique almost always complements a room, there are common mistakes that could be making your antiques look cheap.
The beauty of decorating with antiques is the versatility they bring to a space. With so many styles to choose from, creating a one-of-a-kind home can be achieved with a keen eye and knowledge of the classic eras and makers. However, styling your antiques is just as important as sourcing them and can make all the difference when it comes to how they affect your overall scheme.
