Condition Report
Seat height 16 inches

Overall excellent original structurally sound condition.   The chair displays even and consistent color and finish throughout - free of any material losses.   Some superficial scuffs, not immediately seen with the naked eye and does not detract from the overall design of the chair. Natural tight age splits. An exceptional example of this design, and ready for in-home use
