Welcome to Bohemian’s! A home furnishings, antique and style blog, we love artistic interior design. In fact, we love to delve into the ins and outs of Bohemian style for the home featuring of-course, stylish furniture.
First let’s define antiques with a quick definition. In our experienced opinion, a true antique, is anything collectible that appears to be more than 100 years old. TIP: As a rule of thumb, dirt on the ground is quite old but none of us would consider it an antique unless it was hallowed ground.
Second we should consider things antiques if they are old, collectible, eye pleasing, historical, or have a significant meaning to an individual or a group. After-all, in combination, the more rare or wanted an item is the more valuable it will become to someone. So the beauty, style, quality, rarity, history all come into play for placing a value on an antique in our collection.
Lastly, you may ask where can i find these old relics near me? At Bohemian’s the answer is online, for sale and at the best price.
