GORGEOUS! Ive gone thru so many chairs to find the perfect one her eit is! Love it so much quality and craftsmanship. It comes in a box completely put together. No work just unpack. Theres a lot of packaging to make sure nothing is disturbed. Its definitely a 400-500 dollar chair. Its a forever piece if cared for. Its slightly leaning frontways. Stability as the back.legs are reinforced. I cant tell u how it feels to start to fall, grab a chair and it comes down with you.it had 3 legs..very elegant not so sturdy.
