RIENSTRA'S GARAGE Local Museum Curator Shares Knowledge, With Antique Class bring in antiques for a 'show and tell' session in which Mrs. Veinot explains the finer points of each item. Over the course of the term everything from Canadian pine furniture to Victorian glassware will be touched on. Although she provides students with enough back- ground information on what to look for when purchasing an antique, she suggests novice collectors vîsit museums, historical societies and auctions for a first-hand look. Use Fingers "Antiquing is a learning process," she says. "Learn to see what you're looking at, learn to feel with your fingers.'" Antique collecting, once the sport of the very rich, has become a hobby for millions of North Americans - why else the packed attendance at antique and nostalgia shows? "Twenty years ago there wasn't much interest la antiques, but I think the uncertainty of today's world has made people turn back to their ancestors days when furniture was beautifully hand crafted and made to last," says Mrs. Veinot. Why the sudden înterest la someone's used household items? Well, for one thing rising furmiture prices have brougbt the purchase of antiques almost in line with modemn styles. Antiques are also an investment, tbey may not be gold, but if you buy quality they're the next best thing. Signatures, whether it be the artist's or a manufactur- er's stamp, increase the value of an object. Wbenever possible buy antiques with a signature, recommends Mrs. Veinot. The differences between a quality' antique and a f ad are as varied as the people who collect them. Quality antiques, according to Mrs. Veinot, are items of good taste, good design, good con- struction and good workman- ship. Quality Important "Age alone doesn't make an antique. If if was not good quality 100 yeams ago, it sfill,, isa ,f good today," maintains Mrs. Veinot. While some collectors, purists as Mrs. Veinof cails tbem, will collect only handi- made items of good qualify, others are into fad pieces like Coke trays and original Barbie dolîs. Mrs. Veinot says she be- lieves fads are bad invest- ments. The more people who wanf an item themore expen- sive it becomes, but once the demand is no longer there the fad antique will reverf to its original worf b, she says. As in most professions the- antique business has its con artists. Rip-offs wben they do occur usually bappen to people dealing with fad antiques, says Mrs. Veinot. .Guarantee "A crooked dealer won't stay in business long," she says. However, if you feel leery about a piece ask for a written guarantee on the value, she suggests. The difference between an antique and a collectable, lîke the Coke trays, is simple - collectables are items no longer made that people find attractive. Stressing the idea collecting should be f un, Mrs. Veinot warns her class nof to succumb to the temptation of collecting items because fhey are the 'in', fhing.
