The illustration is quite accurate except that the colours are a little too light on the picture. Few traces of woodworms, particularly on the edges of the backrest. Wear and chips to the painting (especially on armrests and feet ends, as visible on the photo). Stable and comfortable seat covered with well-preserved leather. With its genuine and unusual mechanical system allowing to recline the backrest.
