Genuine antique furniture is always increasing in value, it is
being hunted for all over the world. Nowadays, furniture collecting
has become one of the most fashionable kinds of collecting in the
world. When purchasing antique furniture, one should distinguish
between periods and styles, determine whether an item was restored
or made over, whether it is a later copy. Recently, decorating interior
in historical style, so popular all over the world, has come into
fashion in Russia, too. Fashion is transient, you can't keep
up with it, and if the matter concerns design, interior, creative
work, you, probably, needn't to. Every antique item has its own
character and its own genealogy. Antique furniture breathes life
into the whole interior, it is no longer commomplace, on the contrary,
everything breathes of romance.
