Here in the Midwest, we don't run into much Witco. I found an interesting piece in an antique shop that I'm going to back and maybe purchase, but I've not noticed much information on pricing Witco, and I need a ball park figure.

Yer gonna say I should post a picture, but I don't have one. Let me describe it: It is a hanging plant holder, the lower piece horizontal, carved maybe with bird heads on the ends, about four feet long. It is hollowed out a bit to hold plants. This is attached to two chains which go up to two individual carved, vertical pieces, each about two feet long, which attach to the wall each shaped like stretched out dog bones.

There's a Shag print that shows part of a Witco just like this one.

I don't know if a decent price is $25, $250 or $2500. Can anyone give an idea?
