    Hi, Angie!

    In my opinion, the picture frame doesn't appear to be an antique. However, is it made out a wood, plaster, a combination of the two or plastic?

    Because of the ornateness of the bar stool, I think that it might be of oriental origin. It's tough to arrive at a possible dating, though.

    Because of the coloring and overall shape of the storks, I would say that they're probably from the art deco period of the early twentieth century.

    Thanks!

    Hi again, Angie!

    I don't think that the bar stool has much monetary value. But, the storks appear to be really well made and I think that they would fetch quite a bit at an antique store.

    What is the picture frame made of, please?

    Thanks!
