Condition

Overall in very good original condition. The cane of these chairs is stable and appears original. With some minor color variations across the cane, which is consistent with the aging of the material and sun exposure. This is subtle and consistent with the natural aging process. The chromium-plated steel elements of the chair bases with some minor surface scratches, light discoloration and some slight rubbing, all consistent with age and use.
