Antique furniture

A piece of antique furniture is a collectible interior furnishing of considerable age. Often the age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features make a piece of furniture desirable as a collector's item, and thus termed an antique. The antique furniture pieces reflect the style and features of the time they were made; this can be called the antique's "period".

Christie's defines it as being over 100 years old.
