[QUOTE="bluemoon, post: 132537, member: 1296"]Right. I think this is one of the key elements. But I myself enjoy the whole spectrum from pristine to patinated to falling-apart. I like to have pristine / good-conditioned items IF they are easy to keep in good condition (decorative things that don't get much wear and tear) On the other hand, to bring atmosphere I like worn items (although more in the furniture / outdoors decor category) and those sort of things can be lived with without having to worry about further patina being created. But again, I'm not a collector. Not a real one anyway.[/QUOTE]
