Condition report
There is a crack to the central well of the chair just below the rear hinge and also two further cracks to the rear of the hinge just above the drain hole. When turned over, fibreglass tape repair patches can be seen to the reverse of these cracks. There are also fibreglass tape repair patches around the inside of the central seam of the chair. Some corrosion to the hinge. Some scuffs and scratches to the outer shell of the chair commensurate with use and age. The red cushion cover appears to be in good order. There are some marks and a small pull to the orange fabric cover. The cushions themselves appear to be good and press stud fittings are in place.
