This early model is of superb quality with generous proportions, they are extremely comfortable. The frames are solid wood, with beautiful and sweeping curves.

The frames have been cleaned and given a fresh oil polish, they are in excellent condition, with just some extremely minor wear. They are in the original velvet fabric we obtained them in, the fabric is mostly in very good condition with some minor surface wear and a few very small marks here and there. They look lovely as is, they would also be beautiful re-upholstered.
