Magnus Stephenson

Overall in good condition. The wood with a warm brown color which is slightly richer than in the catalogue illustration. The wood surfaces have been sensitively cleaned and present with surface scratches, minor abrasions, minor areas of discoloration and light surface soiling consistent with age and gentle use. The leather of the seat appears to be original and presents with some surface scratches, discolorations, surface dis colorations and a few minor abrasions consistent with age and use. A wonderful pair displaying pure lines and an elegant combination of wood and leather. -----
