Overall in very good condition. An incredibly sleek and modern design by Amanda Levete with dynamic proportions. The dark stained beech presents with very light surface scratches and occasion edgewear consistent with gentle use. The stained surface with some occasional variations in color which are not visually distracting. The bench presents with some very minimal and scattered inpainting marks to the wood concentrated to the seat which blend very well overall with the rest of the surface.
