Condition
Overall in excellent condition consistent with age. The chair is made from stuffed toy alligators stitched together onto a canvas backing over stainless steel legs. The fabric surface is in very good clean condition overall with no visible issues. Faint surface scratches on the metal legs consistent with age and gentle use. The lot is offered with a protective cover with the canvas bag that bears the Campana logo. Overall a playful piece and a fine example of contemporary design by the Campana brothers.
