Condition

The image is quite accurate. Structure is sound and sturdy. As said in the catalogue, they have been re-gilt and reduced in width. The gilding is now quite worn with several chips in places. As visible on the image, the upholstery of one sofa needs to be re-done. However, very fine carving and attractive model.
