Condition & Details of Restoration
This chair is in original structural condition. The polish has been revived, by our own craftsmen, by hand in the traditional manner. There are some minor old marks under the polish, but nothing you wouldn’t expect to find on a chair like this that is in very good condition for its age. Often these types of chairs have old repairs to the back where it is joined to the seat as this is a ‘weak spot’ for this type of design fortunately, this chair bears no such damage or repair.
