Old furniture, in most cases, was crafted with better materials and in a sturdier, more elegant manner than modern furniture is, so even if the furniture in questions is in some moderate state of disrepair, it will be worth it to repair the furniture - shoring up any bumps and bruises it has - instead of buying something new, as this older furniture will actually continue to be a much better thing to own than most stuff you can buy nowadays.
If you do not need to fix the furniture in question in some way but instead simply have furniture that looks old, keep in mind the fact that a little bit of paint can go a long way in making furniture look better; don't be afraid to try a few different things as far as paint goes, experimenting until you find something that makes your furniture look good as new!
And even if you cannot see any way in which you will have need for this old furniture and think that it would be better to simply get rid of it, realize that there are a lot of people who would love to have a beautiful piece of old furniture; with such sites as Craigslist and eBay, you can not only get rid of your old furniture, but can also get some extra money in the process.
Think twice before you decide to throw something away when you are picking through your old furniture, as it may simply take some small "fixes" or a bit of new paint for this furniture to be well worth keeping in your house - or well worth someone else's money in order for them to keep it in theirs!
