I bought a used Yamaha U3 (upright piano) in 2011, which was manufactured in the 80s. Still sounds lovely! No creaking or sticking keys, and she holds her pitch like a charm.

Granted, I don't practice enough and generally play more softly. Otherwise, studio pianos really start to show their age after a few decades.

We also have a quilt that my partner's grandma made for him as a newborn. It's beautiful, colorful, and looks like it could have been sewn yesterday.

Not sure which is older, the quilt or the piano...
