Condition Report:
The illustrations are accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor dents and scratches due to age and use. The gilding is slightly chipped. The tapestry has been slightly restored and is slightly distressed on two seats of armchairs, on the seat of the sofa and on one arm. The rest of the tapestry is very slightly distressed on some areas. The central medallion of the back is probably rewoven. All seats would benefit from more horse hair inside.
