Condition report
One elbow chair is a late 20th Century matched example. The other chairs appear to date from the late 19th to early 20th Century - these chairs have all been extensively restored, re-polished and re-upholstered and the seats re-webbed. All of the frames have old woodworm flight holes that have been filled. The upholstery is not holed or torn, but most seats have spot marks / stains to them in places and the braiding to one of the seats is loose.
There is a repair to an old break to one of the rear legs. Seat height is 44.5cm.
