Condition Details: This elegant set of iconic arm chairs has recently undergone a comprehensive and transformative restoration process featuring new leather upholstery.

The upholstery, redone in a chrome-tanned leather hide is in showroom, never-sat-in condition showing only the wear of once living animal (ranch-brands, scars etc.). Both chairs feature new medium density foam and support straps for maximum comfort and longevity.
This visually stunning set of armchairs is incredibly comfortable, structurally solid and ready for a literal lifetime more of use thanks to it's recent restoration process.
