Condition

Overall in very good condition. The table top appears to have a later finish, and therefore shows only very gentle use. The table presently with two leaves, each adding approximately 14 inches to the length. The measurement of the table in the catalogue includes one leaf, as it is shown the in catalogue. The chairs with some wear to the rush, and scratches and nicks to the wooden frames. The chairs with some rubbing to the finish and some minor graying to the wood. All of the rush remains in tact. A very nice large dining suite.
