Condition

Overall very good condition. Upholstery in excellent condition. The wood elements with minor scratches consistent with age and use. The metal components of the base show some minor spots of rubbing, and surface dirt. With minor corrosion to the hardware fasteners to the underside of the seat and reverse of backrest. This has affected the surrounding metals slightly. The chair is stable, and this is simply a discoloration. An elegant and functional design.
