Condition
Good overall condition. The wood has been previously re-varnished and presents with a few scratches, some scuffs, a few tiny dents and a few tiny chips, mostly concentrated along the legs. The wood presents with a few hairline cracks, including a few that have been previously stabilized - two on the reverse of the backrest are slightly more visible. The fabric seat is newer and in very good overall condition. There is a cane seat underneath the fabric seat cushion.
