Every year, the research staff at Asheford Institute of Antiques surveys its community of over 2,470 current students and past graduates who are actively employed or working within the antiques, collectibles, and vintage marketplaces, to get a read on current market trends within the antiques, vintage and collectibles community within the United States and Canada.

Survey results, categorized by the age groups of the “proprietor” respondents (defined as respondents operating their own antiques and vintage, or estate sale/appraisal businesses, including online concerns), provide an inside look at the Top 10 item/genre/period listings, and their relative popularity with consumers.
