Condition

This chair has had a hard life, from the top, there are areas of old worm throughout, ( treated and no spongy areas at all) the rails surrounding the back caning have been strengthened by additional supports, the seat rails have all been strengthened from the underside, and the feet are replacements, the chair has lost a fair bit of its original dark finish. On a positive note the repairs are honest and this is a 300 year old chair and although it has a little movement in the back rails is still a very serviceable chair
