Antiques are items over 100 years old, artifacts are man made objects of archaeological and / or historical interest, while antiquities are very old antiques (relic or monument of ancient times, predating the Middle Ages). All are welcome on vbid me auctions but please remember many countries restrict exports and sometimes imports of anything over even 50 years old.
