Buy Antique Or Designed Vanities
When it comes to buy an antique bathroom vanity you have to think if it will be a good or bad acquisition. Don’t shop for everything you see because you think it’s an antique. If you want a quality vanity make sure to pick it by its age, price, design and functionality.
An antique bathroom vanity usually presents some doubts. You don’t know what to do. Should you buy a real antique one or an antique design? People who don’t know a thing about antiquities don’t know the difference between them, having the idea that they are all the same. It is true indeed that they both have different qualities. When you go shopping for an antique bathroom vanity, to make the difference between a real and designed one you have to check its authenticity and price.
Some times, most of those authentic vanities can rise in price and that is the main indicator for a genuine one. A good antique bathroom vanity is made from mahogany, cherry or oak and people purchase them because these types of wood are known to last a very long time. If you treat your antique bathroom vanity properly, it is sure to last another generation. With a little wood sealant you can keep that precious wood away from water or moisture that could cause damages.
The price varies between a genuine antique bathroom vanity and its authentic counterpart. The price is fixed depending on its size, design or type of wood used. For manufacturers to sell their antique design counterparts, they make them appear old so that they reflect the passing of years also using the same type of wood. This are tricks to make vanities look authentic, but they are not.
Many people purchase them even dough they know they are not authentic. Why? Because they can purchase them brand new! They look exactly like antique bathroom vanities by having elaborated designs. Only one thing is missing, the tear and wear.
