It's a bar with matching stools! The tulip base is chrome. We spotted it at the Hunted House on 14th Street. Have you seen anything similar?

I was going to say that! Looks like an ideal scratching post for cats.

As a matter of fact, I saw a set exactly like this only yesterday at an antique mall in Arkansas. Now I think this hideous trio is stalking me...

It's vintage Chromcraft. I've yet to have mine restored though.
