Very good overall condition. The chairs presents with light instances of wear, mainly located on the feet. Discoloration of the upholstery. The leather under the seat presents with drying cracks due to the normal aging process of the material. This pair of chairs have been repainted and reupholstered at a later stage. All consistent with age and use.
