Very good original condition with heavy wear from normal use and age. Patina is attractive displaying dark creases to armrests and light, scattered surface mars to rear of chair. Two newer scratches to inside of armrest. Leather piping to leading edge of seat is worn in two areas. Overall a very good vintage example with normal wear from use over time.
