Condition Details: This built-for-comfort lounge chair and ottoman set is in 100% original, vintage condition. The plywood beech frame and legs show some minor signs of vintage wear such as small scrapes and light nicks and scratches (the worst of which are shown in the detail photos provided). With that said the wood is in overall very good condition and the beechwood stained rosewood is absolutely gorgeous in natural light.
The leather does show some signs of wear and patina with several pin pricks, scratches and minor areas of light discoloration present ( the worst of which are all shown in the detail photos provided). With that said the leather is in overall very good shape and shows no rips or odors whatsoever. As purists we strive to keep our pieces in as original condition as possible but if you'd prefer to have this chair reupholstered please message us prior to checkout to discuss options and pricing. The canvas back too shows minor areas of light discoloration (shown in the detail photos provided).
The chair reclines and swivels 360 degrees with ease and without noise of issue. Fully reclined the chair measures 46" depth and 36" when fully upright.
This chair and ottoman set is the epitome of comfort, are structurally solid and ready for decades more of use. Please view all photos and natural light video provided for details on this set's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
