Condition Report:
This is a fine quality antique English rustic set of 12 kitchen chairs, constructed of solid ash, elm and beech, with a Windsor hoop & stick back design, circa 1910, in excellent original condition. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges (e.g., seats, back and legs) but nothing significant considering the age of them. The chair joints have been glued and the chair frames have cleaned and wax polished by hand, to a professional standard, in our workshop; therefore, the colour and patination of the set are excellent. This is a harlequin (matched) set and therefore there is some colour and size variation. The chairs sit firm on the ground and do not wobble. They are well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
