Overall, this Victorian armchairs is in great antique condition, with slight signs of use and veneer wear, as to be expected from years of age (see photographs) There are historical cracks to the back of a spindle, and to the Crinoline stretchers, but this doesn't affect functionality at all as it has been previously glued strong (see photographs). There are signs of historical woodworm to the upper backrest rail of the chair, and armrest, that have been fully treated by the previous owner (see photographs).
There is a small historical sign of wood filler to the inside of the right arm (see photograph).
