Why Are Antiques So Cheap? Because Everyone Lives ...
I'm torn. I love my modern minimalist look, but really I wouldn't mind having a houseful of all that baroque Victorian look either.

FYI: baroque period is 17th and 18th century. Victorian is in 19th to very early 20th century. There was a baroque revival in the late 19th century which complicates things :) in the world of furniture, they are distinct.

I think it's fashion, in 10 years the pendulum will swing back, somewhat.

Actually a good point. If I had the money I would buy up antiques as long as they are compatible with modern lifestyle/living space dimensions.
