According to Anthony Barzilay Freund, editorial director at , antique and vintage ceramics are a versatile find that can add major personality to your home. Barzilay Freund says, “Antique and vintage ceramics create talking points within a room and can be arranged (and endlessly re-arranged!) “Check for any markings and do your research, as sometimes, antique ceramics may not have markings yet,” says Barzilay Freund. “As a general rule, antique and vintage ceramics are sturdier than newer ones, and much heavier,” says Barzilay Freund. Most modern ceramics are made in factories, so they appear more uniform, while antique or vintage ceramics tend to have an imperfect look from being handmade.
