Antiquing specifically refers to the act of searching for and acquiring antiques, which are items that are considered to be of significant age and historical value. Antique items often have a certain level of craftsmanship, rarity, and aesthetic appeal. When antiquing, people typically focus on finding items that are at least 100 years old or more, such as antique furniture, vintage clothing, collectibles, and unique decor pieces. On the other hand, thrifting refers to the practice of shopping for secondhand items in general, which can include a wide range of used goods, not limited to antiques. Thrift stores, also known as secondhand stores, offer a variety of items such as clothing, accessories, household items, books, and more. Thrifting is often associated with finding affordable and pre-loved items, with an emphasis on reusing and recycling.
