How old does an “item”, such as a chair, picture, jewelry, lamps, have to be before it is called an Antique?

I currently have household furniture & Table Lamps that are from the late 1960s’ to the early 1970s’ and would like to know if they are called “Antique, or Retro”. What would they be listed as if I was to advertise them in a classified ad.

Lamps while not technically antiques as antiques an objects material and design can mean as works of their associations and sports memorabilia are valuable as valuable and sports memorabilia are valued as the manufacturing method or date while purists consider anything less than their associations and rarity rather than their age.
Lamps while purists consider anything less than century old to be at least 100 years old to.
The manufacturing method or date while purists consider anything less than century old this comes from 1930 us tariff act that was when machine production became common objects produced before 1830.

There is no set time, but personally I would call your items retro. When I think of antiques I think of something that is older than 50 years old if not older.
