If people in the past did not buy high quality furniture, ceramics, glass and other items, then keep them, love them, take care of them, and antique deals sell very little. The problem many buyers are facing right now is, "What can I buy that will eventually add value and one day become the ideal antique or collection? Maybe you will look for unique pieces from the crafters, or prefer valuable jewelry with intrinsic value in gold and precious stones. Of course, anything great designers like Philip Stark do today will add value and appeal. The lemon juicer shown here is an example of his unique design. Whatever you choose, you rely on your judgment and will one day make a profit for you or your offspring. Would you like to buy any items for sale on the above table? Some are obviously thinking about doing this, but is any of them a future collection? Some things are not very old and some have been collected, but will any of them add enough value to be worth buying and storing? The first rule to remember is that there is no guarantee, so you should only buy what you like. If you only buy for investment, you should only spend the money you can afford, just like any other gamble. Whether you intend to purchase furniture, glass, ceramics or other types of items, the main thing you should look for is quality. The official definition of antiques is that it has a history of 100. Today, you will see furniture younger than antiques. As high quality antique furniture becomes more and more difficult to find, the definition becomes more and more relaxed. The taste has also changed, and what is called "brown furniture" is no longer popular, while works of fashionable, high-quality art deco style, even though they were made in the 1930 s and 1920 s,Also, the 1950 s style furniture has become fashionable. Craftsman makes furniture with quality wood, finished product is good, signature if possible, will almost certainly keep its value, may appreciate over timeFurniture produced from local chain stores, made of cardboard, even with wooden finishes, will almost certainly lose value once it leaves the store. It will not improve with age and polishing, and the longer it is used, it may deteriorate. My partner and I were amused by the furniture shown above, when we saw it at the Craft Fair (exhibition) at Princess Anne's house in Gatcombe Park. Every quirky piece is unique and beautifully crafted. Is it going to be bad for it as an investment, or is it likely to increase its value? My gut feeling is that it may maintain its value and even make a profit in the future. It is made by a craftsman, so the market will never be overwhelmed by similar works. This is the judgment you have to make when buying an investment. Another thing to consider is: do you like it? If you don't do that, you really shouldn't have bought it because you may have to live with it for a few years before it increases enough to be worth selling. It is not only suitable for this kind of furniture. It applies to any possible antiques or collectibles you consider investing in your purchase. Not only is it a traditional item, it may appreciate. Anything that is not mass produced, or that may be thrown away or used in large quantities, is valuable if the design is notable, and as long as the conditions are good, it is beautiful or unusual. The shorter the fragmentation (a lot of things that could be thrown away or damaged), the more important the situation is. Architect and designer Lisa Roberts chose what she thought was a future antique in this beautifully illustrated book. They include articles from great modern designers such as Philip Stark, and this book includes a wide range of items such as water bottles, radios, hair dryers, etc. When buying ceramics, hand-thrown pots or exquisite models made by skilled potters, no matter how innovative the design is, are likely to gain value in the next few years, unless, of course, they are incredibly ugly! If they were oneBetter design. In order to have the best chance to buy ceramics that will become a future collection, do not buy items that are produced in bulk. Today, for example, like Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee in 2002 or the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, most souvenirs are made in millions of dollars. Any of these pieces will become rare or desirable with little chance. Don't think it will be popular and valuable in 50 or 100 just because of what is popular now. The more popular it is now, the more likely it is to produce on a large scale at the lowest possible cost and be purchased by thousands, if not millions, of people. Another example that I remember is a souvenir made after Princess Diana's death. You may think that a work with her signature Fax will add an unreal value. It would be different if you had something the princess signed and could prove to be a real signature, not just a duplicate of it. Look at the pictures above and below. Both were taken to the same craft fair as quirky furniture. Would you consider investing in both types? Again, my instinct is to choose the more unusual part shown above. I have seen very few pottery like these figures, and here are thousands of more traditional pottery pieces from many different manufacturers and individual potters. You may have seen ads for limited edition plates, dolls, prints, etc in magazines. Advertising copywriters often suggest that they may value. If you have a work by a well-known collection artist and the version is limited to 50 or 100 numbered pieces, these pieces may be added value due to rarity. However, if any, these advertisements are rarely found in popular magazines. Thousands of limited editions are unlikely to be rare and satisfying, especially if it is mass produced with no intrinsic or artistic value. Instead, consider buying a picture just because you like it. If you like it and like to watch it hang on the wall, it is likely that others will like it too. It may never reach the dizzying height of Damian Hearst's work, but more people may like it, and perhaps Hearst's work will be out of date. What will add value? Over the past few years, experts have suggested a growing trend towards buying brand new toys and models. They say that the key to profitability in the coming years is to keep them in the original packaging and never let any child or adult play with them. These experts are probably right. Maybe at some point in the future, you or your child can make money on something like this, but this is a collection of how unhappy it is. They can never be displayed because it is important that the packaging is kept in its original condition. Until the moment you sell and make a profit, what enjoyment or pleasure do you get from them? If in twenty, thirty or more years, how disappointing it is when you or your offspring decide to sell and they lose money. If this happens, they have no purpose at all. The forgery of Star Wars characters and other very collectible modern toys and similar items is reaching a huge proportion. In fact, it's in a bigObviously, many fakes come from China. It is very important that you be very sure of the source of the purchase of a more expensive modern collection. Even expert collectors can easily be fooled by fakes. These are, in my opinion, the gold rules for collecting possible investments. Avoid using souvenirs when mass production. Learn to appreciate modern design that will become a classic design for the future. Having said that, don't succumb to the passing fashion --Do you remember the passion for baby peas? The price has gone up and now you can't give them away. Some of the popular goods are still desirable in the future. The trick is to choose which one. Here are two links to help you decide what features you think will still be attractive in the future.
