An antique is not neccesarily 100 years old, as suggested by several previous posters.
Usually, an antique is defined as something that is no longer in production, and usually from at least one human generation in the past. (i.e. at least 25 years).
However, just because an item is antique, does not make it valuable. In order to be worth something specifically for it's age, an item would probably have to be at least 50 years old (the older the better, 3000 years old would be worth quite a bit).

I've been in antique shops with stuff that's only a few years old and not even out of print or anything. Anything can be an antique if you can sell it to a crazy old collector.
