this is an old bamboo rod i picked up at a flea market. has some old bobbers in there as well that i think are bamboo, some flies, and it all looks brand new. when i bought it it said bamboo cone pole on the price tag. i dont know how much its worth or what the age is or maker but would love to find out, the picture is from my phone so its kinda bad

 This is a brown leather and wood John Widdicomb chair and ottoman.  I think it is considered a "club" chair.  I do not know if this chair is an antique.  My grandmother purchased it maybe 12 years ago and it was passed down to me. I have not been able to locate the name of the model or the year it was made.  However, I know my grandmother liked to collect fine antiques so I would not be surprised if this is an antique.  It is in excellent condition.  The leather looks nice and the wood has virtually no scuffs.  The back is woven wood (I do not what you call that.  Wicker, maybe?).  When you sit on it you can hear the air let out a bit with a quiet "whoosh".  I am interested in knowing when this was made and what it might be worth.  Thank you.
