An item is considered “antique” if it is at least 100 years old or older. Antique items may be handmade, wooden furnishings, paintings, or other home décor.
“Vintage” refers to items that are 20 to 99 years old and also represent distinct characteristics or styles of their time period. “Retro” can mean “younger” vintage pieces from the 1950s to 1980 or newly manufactured items that are made to look like vintage pieces.
An antique mall is a large space filled with individual rented booths for vendors to sell their wares (primarily antiques, as opposed to a temporary flea market). In an antique mall, you can browse through hundreds of vendors’ booths that will contain a large variety of antiques, vintage and retro goods, and more. An antique store is typically a smaller shop curated by an antique dealer, and the shop may focus on one specific style or look.
