Condition
Overall very good condition. The chairs present with nice tone throughout, and shows evidence of gentle use. The seat and lower portion of the feet with a few nicks, scratches and dings consistent with gentle use. With some minor adhesive residue to the reverse of the back stretcher brace. One chair presents with two minor age cracks the reverse of the seat back extending approximately 2.5 inches from the bottom edge, which are approximately five inches apart. These are minor and appear to have been sensitively stabilized. A nice example of this rare chair design.
