Condition

Excellent condition overall. The chair presents with very light scuffing on steel tubes only visible upon close inspection and concentrated by the seating area. There is evidence of light soiling and dust in between the steel tubes which can be professionally cleaned at the client's discretion. A rare model that presents well overall.
