Individual Characteristics
The leather on these chairs is in an aged, used, condition, there are signs of use on the edges and on the arms which give it an aged character. The one does display a minor cut in the back of the seat section which is accounted for in the price.
The metal does show signs of its age and may benefit from a good polish, but this is only visual and does not affect the structural integrity of the chair.
The label on the underside indicates this chair was produced in 1981 by Herman Miller.
