The chairs are structurally sound, and the seats and upholstery are in excellent condition, showing very little wear. The painted frames do have cosmetic imperfections consistent with storage and handling, including nicks, scrapes, and paint loss in various areas. These flaws are purely aesthetic and do not affect the functionality or comfort of the chairs. Overall, this is a beautiful vintage pair that retains its classic Dorothy Draper style and would make a striking addition to any interior. less
