Condition
Overall in very good condition. The lacquered surfaces with minor shallow nicks, scuffs and shallow indentations, not visually distracting and visible on close inspection. The veneer with very minor yellowing to the clear lacquer consistent with age. The front left and right edge of the backrest and legs have been professionally and sensitvely retouched. The fabric upholstery is newer and in excellent condition. A rare and striking model that exemplifies Swedish modernist design.
