Antique Collectors were in the business of recycling long before "going green" was in vogue.  Consider how many items would be in landfills today if we didn't reuse and cherish things from the past.  To shop "green" by purchasing antiques and collectibles, we reduce waste in our environment, and conserve our natural resources.  Experts estimate that an average piece of new furniture ends up in a landfill within two to five years!

The true definition of an "antique" is to exist over one hundred years old.  So when we buy antiques, we are actually perserving history.  Antiques are not only nostalgic, but they have fine quality craftsmanship, and the richness of real aged wood!  Why buy new, when you can have a unique piece of history that will last another lifetime.
