Condition and Details of Restoration
These chairs are in untouched original structural condition, and are completely sound. The polish has been re-finished, by our own craftsmen, by hand in the traditional manner. There are some old marks under the polish as might be expected on examples of this age, but in this case all extremely minor. The original horse hair upholstery has been retained but re-covered, once again by our own craftsmen, by hand in the traditional manner.
