Condition Report
In overall good, stable condition. Old scuffs, marks and scratches throughout consistent with age and use. A few scattered areas of flaking to gilt decoration with exposed gesso, flaking generally not noticeable unless viewed closely. One armchair with a filled area to one back leg, appears to be from a larger chip to leg, still stable. The upholstery is a little dusty but appears to be free of significant tears and loses. Additional images available upon request.
