Condition

This 50-60 year old chair is still in good shape! Photos were taken outdoors in August in natural lighting, without any colour correction. Colour of the leather on the seating differs a little from the colour of the leather on the backrest because of its age. The leather displays wear, but keep in mind, this is a loved 'old chair'. Unrestored vintage condition: only leather cream has been used and some wax on the oak wood frame.

If you need more pictures or a video or want to view the chair upon making a decision, please let us know.
