Condition

Each chair in overall good condition consistent with age. The leather is new and in excellent, clean condition. One chair with a shallow scratch on the proper left back rest support as well as a series of minor nicks to the back rail of the proper right side. The second chair with two small scratches (approx 2 in.) at the inside of the front apron. The back chair rail with a sensitively executed professional restoration that is not visually obtrusive. A rare model that wonderfully displays the characteristic lines of Finn Juhl.
