They are bentwood much the same as Thonet and extremely comfortable. The are a rare shape and size, taller than a normal chair and with a higher back rest, they look to be a low bar stool to me. The seats are all original, two are the same and nicely engraved, the third has riveted holes from new, someone must have had a hot bottom! Condition wise, they have been cleaned waxed and polished from top to bottom and are in ready to go condition. Dimensions Height:- 94.5cm Width:- 33cm Depth:- 41cm Seat height:- 57cm. Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point. This item is available for collection from our Pulborough warehouses.
