The bar itself consists of two bamboo bar stools and a simple designed bar with bamboo trim about four feet wide (good vintage condition). I was wondering if anyone had any price information on a bar like this. Thanks for any info......

I would be really interested to find out more about Haywood Wakefield's tropical furnishings. I would love to see a picture of your bar, too.

But the the stools are stamped Heywood Wakefield. The bar front has a concave look to it and bamboo trim. No pictures yet. I went to the thread and It did not mention a cost for a bar. This one has a price of $225.00 and is in good condition. Overpriced? Underpriced? Let me know. thanks...

Actually, that is one hell of a good deal!! Buy it immediately! I've been looking for a Heywood Wakefield Ashcraft bar, I know they're out there, and the only one I've seen in person is priced at $895. Buy it now! NOW!!!

Compare to other Hey-Wake items. What would you pay for a chest of drawers? This is much more unique and elaborate. But it's hard to say that it's way under-priced. Regardless, I would say it's a buy if you like it.

The stools go for about $125 each in good condition and the bar I'd say is worth about $400 - $600 depending on the condition. Yup, I know a bit about Heywood Wakefield...got a house full of the stuff. Matt On 2004-04-21 03:52, NeptuneTiki wrote: I guess the bar could be rattan due to the stools have a bent look to them.

Pup said that it was waaay underpriced because the stuff is just really hard to come by here in SoCalifornia. It may be because there are more poeple out here that are hip to that situation. There is a shop in Olde Town Orange that sells HeyWake and something like that would be upwards of $1000 in that store. I would snatch that thing up immediately.
