Of good rich mid to dark mahogany tone, numerous small dents, scratches and scuffs commensurate with age most notably on the legs, upper surfaces of the arms and back feet but overall good condition, frame solid, recent cut cloth upholstery. The bow at the bottom of the splat has been broken and re-attached (upside down!) but appears to be original.
