The “100-year rule” is a commonly used guideline that defines an item as antique if it is at least 100 years old.This standard is often used by museums and collectors to distinguish antiques for vintage items (typically 20-99 years old).

However, the exact definition can vary depending on context.

Regardless of age, if an item is rare, high in quality, and has historical or artistic significance, it may still be worth protecting – and that’s where our secure storage comes in.

• Damage or deterioration – physical wear, moisture, or fire can significantly reduce value
• Changing trends or tastes – some styles, even historical ones, can fall out of favour and impact demand
• Market saturation – if too many similar items appear on the market, value tends to dip
• Lack of provenance – without history or paperwork, some items may be harder to value

Proper secure storage can prevent many of these issues, particularly theft, damage, and environmental decline, helping to maining long-term value.

It can be. Many antiques have held or increased in value over time; especially rare, well-preserved items.

However, the antiques market can be a bit unpredictable and returns aren’t always guaranteed.

That said, antiques often offer:

• Diversification from traditional investments
• Personal enjoyment from owning and displaying beautiful or historic items
• Heritage value to pass down through generations

If you’re building a collection or protecting inherited pieces, secure storage helps preserve your investment, ensuring it stays safe, insured and in good condition over time.
