Condition
Overall very good condition. The frame shows very gentle use and some minute surface scratches. There is an area of restoration to the front edge of the seat at the center, extending five inches, that appears infilled and over-painted. The restoration has been sensitively undertaken and is only visible on close inspection. Retains all the original fastening hardware.
