Condition Report:

The armchairs have been newly upholstered in a beautiful pale gold & ivory structured silk brocade, and finished with ivory braiding. The upholstery and braiding is therefore clean and free of marks, dirt or tears. The springs in the seat are firm but they are comfortable to sit on. The lets retain their original brass mug castors. The armchairs are solid in joint and ready to use.
