Condition Details: This iconic set of Møller Model #71 dining chairs are in rare 100% original, vintage condition! The mix of solid and veneered Burmese teak frames and legs do show some signs of vintage wear such as nicks, scratches and minor scrapes (the worst of which can be seen in the detail photos provided). With that said the wood is in overall very good shape and the variegated woodgrains are absolutely mesmerizing in natural light.
The original paper cord seats too shows some signs of vintage wear such as minor stains and small areas of discoloration and fraying (the worst of which can be seen in the detail photos provided). With that said all seats are comfortable and weight-bearing and are not missing any strands.
As purists we strive to keep our pieces in as original condition as possible. However we do offer full carpentry and restoration services as well as in-house upholstery services. If any of these options interests you please message us prior to checkout to discuss options and pricing.
This untouched set of Møller Model #71 dining chairs are incredibly comfortable, structurally sound and ready for decades more of use. Please view all photos and natural light video for details on this limited set's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
