Sotheby's New York, May 16, 1981, lot 151

Condition

Impressive size and proportions. Both chairs with flaking and losses to paint throughout, which is consistent across all surfaces and creates a generalised slightly 'distressed' look as seen in the catalogue photos. Small nicks and age cracks at joints, but chairs are very sturdy. Some old worm holes, no longer active. Upholstery in good condition with very minor staining; seat rails not examined underneath upholstery.
