Condition

Overall in excellent condition. The frames of the chairs appears to have been sensitively cleaned and with a possible later finish. With minor surface scratches to the seat back and the legs commensurate with use. The slunkskin seats have not been disturbed and are in excellent original condition. With some surface wear concentrated to the front edges of the seats likely from use. With some minor inconsistencies in the slunkskin material which is likely inherent. The edge with a few areas of lifting, which is consistent with the construction.
