Condition

Overall in good condition. When viewed in person, the color of the leather seats is a dark chocolate brown color, slightly lighter than in the catalogue illustration. The metal surfaces with some minor surface scratches, areas of pitting, and minor areas of wear consistent with age and gentle use. The leather is possibly original and presents with some surface scratches and a few areas of wear along the edges, consistent with use and folding of the stools. A very stylish pair which epitomizes Kjaerholm's functional yet elegant design.
