Condition and Details of Restoration
These chairs have been restored prior to our ownership, but to a high standard and are structurally completely sound. The polish has been revived, but remains attractively faded in places. There are minor old marks underneath the polish as might be expected on chairs of this age. The upholstery has been replaced, with horsehair, in the traditional manner. The covers are clean but slightly faded.
