Question

What's the difference, if any, between vintage and antique?

Answer 1

Vintage is anything with a fair bit of age, like clothes or furniture from the 30's to the 70's, Antique is usually things over 100years old.

Answer 2

antique is something old, and vintage is a middle english thing (ex. chair)  

Answer 3

As an antiques dealer we would normally class an antique as an item over 100yrs old, vintage would cover the remaining period. Well that certainly is the case for export receipts.

Answer 4

Antique is more than 100 years old, vintage is old and collectible but less than a hundred years old.
