<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nvntivs, post: 498510, member: 7975&quot;]Weeeell... I see your point, and I do admit that I am maybe a little too strong about all this, but on the other hand, the way I see it- why do we buy antiquities in the first place? I am not talking now about dealers or traders... I think it is not because they would always look better than new furniture, or are better in use.. Or are better made... You can find such desks as this one also brand-new, made from finest quality wood and probably better decorated. They may even have an USB charger hidden somewhere for our convenience. </p><p>No, we still prefer to buy an antique one because we actually buy the feeling... Of having a time witness.. Something with a sort of a soul? A piece of history in our room. But when speaking of replicas: For me it is like buying an old copy of an antique coin. It may look just the same, it may be made of the same or even better material.. It will still never be authentic, since only the genuine ones are. .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
