Condition
Overall in very good condition. The surfaces present with scattered minor surface scratches and scuffs. Minor rubbing and losses to the varnish, concentrated to the outer rim of the seats, moreso on one than the other and is consistent with age and gentle use. The legs with expected minor shallow scattered dents, concentrated to the bases of the feet. A fine example of this model, clearly displaying a Japanese influence on Perriand's designs at this time.
