He was angry at his wife for collecting old things, now he is making money

Kuşcu first collected antiques at home and later decided to turn this interest into a career. Having opened his own business in the district, Kuşcu has been bringing the old to the forefront for years as the district's only antique dealer. He purchases many items of antique value, including radios, records, cassettes, and kitchenware from old homes, and then restores and sells them. Kuşcu, who says he loves his work, says his wife is his biggest supporter.

Yüksel Kuşcu, who stated that his wife was his biggest supporter, said, "My wife was more interested in antiques. She would bring home old things, and I would get angry at her, asking why she was bringing them. After a while, I started doing the same thing. I started hearing about antiques. Over time, antiques started to accumulate in the house.

"While I was pondering what to do with these things, I decided to open an antique shop. As a female entrepreneur, I opened my antique shop to set an example for women. We opened our shop in the Taşköprü district. I love what I do. Here, we both keep nostalgia alive and live it. Our interest in the past began a long time ago, as a hobby. We both display our old items and restore them with small touches," she said.

Kuşçu, who stated that visitors to his business take him on a journey through time, said, " I'm the first and only antique dealer in the Taşköprü district of Kastamonu. People who don't know anything about antiques are curious, saying they have similar items at home or have thrown them away. We're very upset. People shouldn't throw away these items; they should either keep them at home or take them to antique dealers to make money. They make money, we make money, and we make these items available to the public. There's a mark on these items used by our grandparents. They're very valuable to us, to our people. Antiques are a beautiful piece of furniture that sits in homes. I use the items I love and appreciate at home."
