Condition Report:
This is a fine quality harlequin set of six Windsor kitchen chairs, in the wheelback design, constructed of solid ash, elm and beech, circa 1940, in excellent original condition. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges (e.g., seats, back and legs) but nothing significant considering the age of them. The chairs have been cleaned, glued and French polished by hand in our workshop to a professional standard, therefore they boast a stunning colour and patination to the wood grain. This is a harlequin (matched) set and therefore there is some minor variation, specifically on the front leg turnings (this is barely noticeable unless pointed out). There are no breaks to the backs or legs of the chairs. The chairs sit firm on the ground and do not wobble. They are well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
