Description from the seller

A distinctive, rare design chair, model no. A.P. 30. Black metal frame and rattan seat / seat shell.

The chair has some cane cracks in the seating surface, mainly. With a sheepskin inside it or a seat cushion on top, these are no longer visible and it also provides comfort. The protective caps under the legs are missing. Over the years the cane has taken on a warmer color. Very beautiful. See the photos for a good impression.
