Condition
Good overall condition consistent with the history of the pieces. The wood presents with the usual light scratches, small dents and a few small chips. A piece of wood of approximately 30 x 0,5 cm has been added later to the underside of one feet to ensure the stability. The chairs has been re-varnished at a later time and multiple dents, chips and holes have been filled. The seams have been re-inforced. One chair still presents with seam separations. The cane seat are newer.
