The bench and armchair are designed with open backs containing vertical rectangular spindles, while the side chair features a fully padded upholstered back. The seats are upholstered in a light blue textured fabric with a subtle vertical stripe, finished with a border of brass-tone nailhead trim. Bench: 39″ H x 48″ W x 20″ D. Seat height 17 inches.
Condition report:
The set is in good, structurally sound condition with signs of age and use. There is finish wear, rubbing, and localized loss of stain on the lower barley twist stretchers and legs. Occasional scuffs, nicks, and minor scratches are present on the upper portions of the frames and arms. The blue upholstery is relatively clean and intact with minor surface indentations from use and light surface soiling. The brass-tone nailhead trim is complete with an aged patina.
