Condition Report: Frames have general wear throughout from use over time that also includes the typical repairs that chairs from Chandigarh usually have. There is a newer repair to the upper left corner on the backrest of one example. There is some scattered finish loss and abrasions to the finish on both. A few feet on both examples have losses of material along their bottom edges. The caning has been updated and is free of any breaks, or repairs. The linen cushions have been updated and are in excellent condition. Overall this set is in very good restored condition while still maintaining age.
