Very good overall condition. The chair presents with some very light surface scratches scattered, slightly more visible on the legs. There are a few extremely rare tiny indentations, not visually distracting and concentrated to the the legs. The proper left upper corner of the backrest presents with a line of tiny indentations on approximately 2 cm. The red enamel with some very light surface soiling and very tiny surface stains easily removable. There is a thin black pen mark on the red enamel right above the proper left front leg.
