Condition Details: This elegantly shaped side chair has recently undergone a partial restoration. Originally this was an arm chair however the arms were damaged. Our carpenters removed the arms and repaired the holes with solid teak dowels which, though subtle, can be seen in the detail photos and natural light video provided. With that said the rest of the chair is in original condition and in very good shape for it's age showing only minor nicks and surface scratches (the worst of which can be seen in the detail photos provided).
The original corduroy fabric shows only light areas of discoloration but showing no tears, large stains or odors whatsoever.
This luxurious of dining chair was built for comfort, is structurally sound and ready for a literal lifetime more of use. We love the original fabric as is but if you're interested in having this chair re-upholstered please message us prior to checkout to discuss options and pricing. Please view all photos and video for details on this chair's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
