Excellent condition. Minor oxidation and slight tarnishing to the bronze surface throughout, largely concentrated to the upper part of the chair and consistent with the natural evolution of the material. There are slight variations in the color tones of the polished bronze. Pinholes concentrated on both sides of the chair's back are inherent to production. Small crevice on the chair's right foot (approximately 1-inch long), visible on the catalogue photography, also appears to be innate. Some dust and minor soiling in between woven bronze elements is typical with age and gentle use.. An iconic piece of contemporary design by Ron Arad that presents well overall.
