What are your oldest belongings still in use? By length of ownership or chronological age:
I think the answer to both of these is the same: my dresser, which I've had since I was three, but which my mother used for many years before that. I'd have to ask her exactly how many years, though: it might be the set of nesting Pyrex bowls that my parents got as a wedding present in 1955, and that my mother gave me when she moved to England. (I also have a beat-up orange frying pan, likewise from my mother, and some Corningwear plates of about the same vintage.) But the dresser has been mine the longest.
