Condition report
Overall structural condition is good, both sit square and are of sturdy construction. Wear and fading to the wood throughout. Some splits to the back splats and there is an old repair to the capital to one of the arms of the chairs.
Please note the chairs are not Huanghuali, but produced and carved to look like the rare species of wood.
