Know before you buy
The frames are structurally sound but show some slight surface rust consistent with their age. They are excellent candidates for a DIY refinishing project if you prefer a pristine look.
No, the ecru cotton cushions are non-original and mismatched. They provide immediate comfort, but you may want to eventually replace them to better suit your personal style.
These chairs feature a smooth, classic motion that Homecrest is known for. Despite their vintage age, the swivel and rocking functions remain highly comfortable and fully operational.
Yes, these are designed as outdoor furniture. However, because of the vintage metal construction, we recommend keeping them in a covered area or applying a protective sealant after refinishing to prevent further rust.
A high-quality, rust-inhibiting spray paint designed for outdoor metal is your best option. Be sure to lightly sand the surface to remove any loose rust before applying your primer and topcoat.
