Condition

Very good overall condition. The wood presents with the usual scratches, minor dents and minute chips, slightly more significant at the bottom of the legs. Two stretchers on one chairs would need to be re-fixed. All consistent with age and gentle use. The leather on this pair of armchairs is newer and in very good overall condition with a few light scratches/scuffs and very few small stains.
