Condition
Overall very good condition. With some light discoloration to the surface throughout. The top surfaces of the ottoman with slightly darker discoloration throughout, as seen in the catalogue illustration. With some minor rubbing and light compression of the cardboard throughout which appears to be the result of gentle use. With some minor water staining to the outer edges of the chair base, as seen in the catalogue illustration. With scattered minor losses to the immediate outer edges of the chair and ottoman, consistent with use of this material. The largest loss measuring 1 ΒΌ inches in length to the proper left front edge of the base, which is shown in the catalogue illustration..
