One category of antiques that remains popular even in a recession is pottery. Like most antiques, the value of pottery is highest the closer it is to its point of origin. Why? Because there is greater demand at the origin point. Demand determines value above all other factors. No demand, no value, no matter how old it might be. The closer one is to an origin point the greater the number of collectors, hence greater demand.
