Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor dents, marks and scratches due to age and use. There are some old woodworm traces throughout. There is a small chip at the top of a back. Both seatrails have been reinforced with four wodden blocks, only visible when you flip the armchairs. Both constructions are firm. The fabric is in good overall condition.
