Condition
Fair overall condition. The wood is slightly dry overall and presents with the usual scratches, scuffs, small dents, small chips and some cracks. The bottoms of the feet present with several larger and deeper chips of wood. The stretchers of one chair are a bit loose but this does not jeopardize the stability of the chair. The wood has been re-varnished at a later date and presents instances of previous restoration (mostly to stabilize some previous cracks.) The upholstery is newer and in excelent overall condition.
