Condition
This bench is generally good but exhibits the kind of wear that one would expect with sustained heavy use over a period of time. The seat with old splits and old marks and scratches. There appears to be old tack holes to the front of the seat. The front legs are slightly loose. Variations to surface color. A rustic, well used piece that is very decorative.
