Roomy, comfortable pair with angled backs providing a slight recline while remaining supportive. Seats are attached.
Perfectly, naturally aged with beautiful patina and moderate wear consistent with age/use. There is a small hole to the bottom profile, two small snags to the back corners, and a small tear to one of the seat cushions along with scuffs/soiling, as shown. There is also an old repair to the back of one of the chairs where a tear has been patched. Mostly notably, there are clusters of old wormwood holes through parts of the leather and wood (these chairs have been completely taken apart to restore their structural integrity).
There are slight differences between the chairs, due to their handmade nature. The seam placement varies from chair to chair, and the piping one one chair is black (versus a dark brown on the other).
The chairs show well, void of any structural issues, and have been fully cleaned and conditioned.
