I'm just curious if anybody knows about this very cool Barstool? I've had it for a while and never really could find anything about it online. If you have any idea if you could message me that would be great.
Very nice 60s psychedelia bar stool, could have been painted by Peter Max or one of his colleagues, I would try an internet search of 60s psychedelia rainbow art, or the 7Up Uncanny in Cans ad campaign (another CW member may know more, provide links etc, good luck)
I have that stool cover. I put it on an old cast iron stool - yours is much more appropriate. Not by Peter Max but certainly influenced by his designs.
Oh how I love psychedelic art!! So beautiful! You're so lucky to have this piece :)
Cherish it!

Don't know what it's worth - here's a clock that sold recently on Ebay:
