Condition
Overall in very good condition. The wooden element of the back rest with some light scratches and a few edge abrasions. The leather seat has been replaced at some point in the chairs history and shows gentle use. The base with some light scratches and the castors move with ease. A wonderful example of Scandinavian midcentury design.
