Overall very good condition, consistent with age and gentle use. Both chairs with light wear and very minor nicks and scuffs throughout. The wood has been sensitively cleaned by a professional restorer and maintain a very nice patina to the oak. One chair with a small area of wood infill at the lower back rail on the reverse. The other chair with a very slight fading of the oak to the upper rail. Also both show a few very minor and scattered wood infills. The upholstery for both chairs is in good clean condition.
