Frits Henningsen

Overall in very good condition. The wood surfaces with a few surface scratches, some scattered abrasions and a few discolorations consistent with age and gentle use. A few concentrated abrasions along the armrest, not visually distracting. The leather has probably been replaced at some point in the history of the piece and is in good condition, with a few scattered surface scratches, areas of wear, minor areas of discoloration and light surface soiling consistent with age and gentle use. The seat with a few minor scattered stains. The upper portion of the backrest with two small scratches, the largest one measuring 1 1/2 inch in length. A sculptural armchair with great visual presence when viewed first hand.
