Antique Wicker Furniture

[CrazyOhio]

My mom is looking to purchase a 6 piece set of antique wicker made by Kaltex or Michigan Seating Company.  The set has a 3x4 table, sofa, 2 rockers, and 2 chairs.  I cannot find anything on the net about this set and any info on a value and idea of rarity would be greatly appreciated. I have attached pics from the ad she is looking at.  Ad says fabric is original and date of manufacture around 1919... any info would be greatly appreciated.

"The Ella Sharp Museum of Art and History, 3225 Fourth St., has a few pieces of the Michigan Seating Co.’s Kaltex furniture in its collection...Anyone with questions about identifying Kaltex furniture can call the museum at 517-787-2320."  Source:  http://www.mlive.com/news/jackson/index.ssf/2010/04/peek_through_time_michigan_sea.html  Seems like they're willing & knowledgeable about dating that type of furniture.  You should give her a call.
