The chairs are made from solid hardwood, possibly teak, and feature a fully folding construction. The frames are assembled with riveted joints, allowing the chairs to fold flat for easy storage.

Each chair has a high slatted back, wide armrests and a low slatted seat. The upper sections of the backrests feature carved and inlaid decorative details. There are slight variations in the decorative elements between the individual chairs.

The wood has developed a strongly weathered surface with variations in colour, traces of previous finishes, marks and other signs of age and use. This aged surface has been preserved and forms an important part of the appearance of the set.

The chairs remain in good vintage condition and the folding mechanisms function properly. Please see the photographs for the individual variations and condition.

Suitable as lounge seating for a terrace, conservatory, veranda or covered outdoor area.
