The chairs are sound and ready to use. They are more than 100 years old so inevitably have appropriate signs of age-related wear.

ENQUIRIES: Further specific photos can be taken and emailed on request or any questions re condition etc will be answered promptly. PAYMENT: Payment can be by Paypal, or cash on collection. COLLECTION: If not collecting in person, the purchaser must arrange their own courier at their own risk.
