Condition Report:
This is a fine quality antique harlequin set of six French kitchen chairs, in the Louis XV style, made from solid oak, with a ladder-back design, featuring drop-in rush seats, circa 1920, in good original condition. This is a harlequin (matched) set of French oak chairs comprising two armchairs and four side chairs. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges but nothing significant considering the age of the item. The chair frames have been glued and the wood has been cleaned and French polished by hand, to a professional standard, in our workshop. Therefore, the colour and patination are of an excellent standard. The chairs incorporate drop-in rush woven seats, which show signs of age and wear (some surface fraying) but are perfectly functional and in-keeping with the age of the chairs, they are solid in joint and are of good quality. The six French kitchen chairs are heavy, which is a sign of good quality and ensures they are sturdy. The oak chairs are solid in joint, they do not wobble and are ready to use.
