Condition
Overall very good condition. Each of the chairs with some light surface scratches consistent with use. The chairs with likely re-upholstered seats. Minor surface dirt and surface scratches on the chair seats and bases throughout. Three of the chairs are presently slightly loose from their bases and would benefit from being tightened. The design is a midcentury icon, and this is a large well-matched set.
