<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 1619104, member: 738"]Yes, middle market, mass manufactured vintage furniture will come back. It sort of has now, with the current trends of re-purposing, designer assemblages, and chalk-painting. Victorian will too, altho it is still popular with the Goths and steam-punk factions, and us hopeless romantics who still subscribe to Victorian Homes and Victoria Magazines. It probably won't go mainstream again until Martha Stewart does another feature story on it. Remember the neo-Victorian craze of the 1980's? Roses ad nauseam, even at Walmart. As James mentioned the high-end, rare regional, attributed maker, and museum-quality pieces of all eras have held and even increased in value, but that's a different level of collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, I thought THIS was Granny Chic... </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]233088[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
