Good overall condition.
General drying up of the wood on the slats, and wear of the varnish on the rest of the structure. A few traces of humidity under the slats. Several scratches on the painted structure and a few lacks showing the original green lacquer, and the metal. Small cracks of the wood on the left arm-rest, one more important lack of about 2 inches, and slight dent on the side. This set is sold with two red cushions, not shown on the catalogue, showing traces of wear, dirtiness, and discolouration, all consistent with normal use.
