Condition

FR : Très bon état général. Légère usure sur l'ensemble des chaises. Egratignures éparses, plus importantes sur le sommet du dossier, l'assise et les pieds. Sur quelques chaises, le sommet du dossier est plus usé, laissant apparaitre le bois. EN : Very good overall condition. General wear on all of the chairs. Scratches scattered, especially on the top of the chairs, the seating and the feet. In some cases, the rubbing exposes the base wood (without being visually obstructive)
