Condition
Overall very good original condition. Appears to be an assembled set as there some very minor differences in the leather and the wooden frames. The overall color of the chairs is very close, as seen in the catalogue illustration. The leather portions of the chairs with minor surface scratches, crazing, areas of discoloration and rubbing throughout. The chairs have acquired a beautiful patina and color with age. Two of the chairs with more concentrated crazing to the seat area, a very small number have begun to slightly crack. However, none of the chairs have penetrating cracks in the leather. The mahogany armrests with surface scratches, rubbing and minor nicks consistent with age and use. The feet of the frames with scattered surface scratches, nicks and dings.
