Condition
All six chairs in overall very good condition. Immediately recognizable as a Kjaerholm design, the chairs are executed in the characteristic matte chromium-plated steel and leather. The subtle curve of the warmly colored wooden back rest wonderfully compliments the straight steel legs. The steel structure with very minor scratches and pitting consistent with age and gentle use. The leather is new and in excellent condition for all chairs. One chair with a small scratch to the back seat rail (approx. 5 in.)
