    Welcome to DiscoveringANTIQUES.com

    DiscoveringAntiques.com is a Canadian owned and operated website designed to connect antique dealers and antique collectors across Canada.

    Discovering ANTIQUES magazine is in its ninth year and has been a labour of love. It is home based in Calgary, published five times a year and circulation for the magazine extends from Saskatchewan to British Columbia. Subscriptions travel as far east as the Maritime Provinces.

    The antique industry took a slump after "9-11" in 2001 and has never really recovered. There were other factors which have affected the business as well, such as SARS, BSE, etc., all of which influenced the economy; and therefore, an industry which retails primarily a nonessential commodity. As important as a collection is to an individual; adding to it or paying the bills left the individual with only one reasonable option. A thought: although antiques and collectables are generally thought to be luxury items; have you ever considered what other furniture or "home decor" pieces you can purchase, use and enjoy today AND… will also appreciate, not depreciate? We have become such a "toss away" society that it will be interesting in a hundred years to know what people collect - if there is anything left to collect that hasn’t been thrown away. Collectors have been recycling for a long, long time; it was just never called that!

    To all you die-hard collectors and those who are just beginning an intriguing new hobby – may DiscoveringAntiques.com provide new horizons for your "hunt!"
