Antiques are generally items at least 50 to 70 years, which were constructed during an earlier set of manufacturing processes. Typically they are items no longer being produced in the same quality or design. Some antiques are many hundreds of years old.

In the US, the Internal Revenue Service classes antiques as items 100 years plus in age.
Purists also class antiques as 100 years plus in age. In many countries an item 2 generations old is also classed antique. Sadly there are no absolute definitive answers. However, 100 years would be absolutely faithful to the concept.
