An antique or collectible that appeals mainly to men, such as old fishing rods & lures, pin-up calendars, tools, toy cars, etc.
man + antique = mantique
When that antique dealer from Chicago stopped at our antique mall on his way home from Brimfield, he stocked up on mantiques for his shop.
A niche of the antique industry that caters specifically to men, with merchandise such as railroad, firefighting, and shaving memorabilia, old pin-ups, knives, weapons, GI Joes, toy guns, and cars. A play on words, combining man and antique.
Super manly man antique items that would not suit ill in any type of accommodation. Mostly found in man caves, bachelor pads or any room that is designated as 'lost' in the eyes of the (possible) wife/cohabiting partner. Mantiques can appear in the form of globe bars, a knight's suit of armor, old stuff made from leather, old typewriters/camera's (preferably cased in leather), a bronze bull, a military lantern/or bell and dead trophy animals in any form or shape.
Sir 1: "You Sir, have an excellent taste in mantiques! Jolly good."
Sir 2: "Thank you lad, let's drink some whisky and smoke a cigar. Let me get my smoking jacket."
The definition of perfect, a name only for a girl and she is so good so good like so good and only the best people in the world get named this unique quite odd name. That is why there is only one person in the world named this name and that is Martique. The downfall of being named martique is that you will be surrounded by annoyingfriends and she will have big ears.
“Oh hey looks it’s Martique, i wish i was named that name she is so good everyone just wants to be named martique cause she’s so good” “i’m crying because i’m so jealous”
