Condition
Very good condition overall. The chairs were recently, professionally reupholstered. The sheepskin presents with rich color and textural variations and is in good clean condition. Minor scratches, scuffing, and small dents on the feet, not visually distracting and consistent with gentle use and age. A rare pairing with the sofa, the suite presents very well overall.
