I was out today spending the day with my wonderful wife. She was shopping and I was walking around looking at the display furniture in some of the stores we went in.

I came across the three stools and thought, wow those are cool and would be fairly easy to make, wonder how much the are selling for? What is your guess?

I mean they are not all that big, Maybe 12 to 14" across the top and maybe 15" tall.

So what do you really think these would be worth? What could you sell them for?

You are not going to believe this. I need to be selling them a bunch of these.

okay so I gave you a hint. Do you think you miss read that?

That is a piece, not for the set of three. Not sure how you could prove they were c. 1950 other than take there word.

That price is right. Here is a close up just in case you didn't blow up the picture.

Yep, $788.00 each. You better get busy cutting sum stumps and carving them out with the chain saw.

Problem isn't making them, it's finding a couple hundred people to spend that amount to buy em.

Yep, do you think someone would really pay that for those?

I've always believed that the only true difference between "art" and "craft" is the asking price.

Those stools are approaching "art".

Thanks, John.

Your right Mike. My thought was how long have they been sitting there, since 1950?

Fred I have no idea. I believe there is someone out there that will, now how many I have no idea.

If they are really antique pieces, it's may be worth the price but still they are way too expensive. Maybe I'll try to make one and add some rustic charm to it.

I was going to say $500.00

At that price they may have been sitting there since 1950 lol
