Condition

Overall in very good condition. The leather presents with minor surface scratches, light rubbing and surface wear to side edges and high reliefs of the stitched upholstery, consistent with age and gentle use. The chromium plated steel frame and supports with minor surface scratches, minor abrasions all consistent with age and use. Resting on low cantilever legs, Kjaerholm created a form that not only presents the viewer with a dynamic, modern line, but one that is also ergonomically comfortable.
