Two leather club chairs, used but very sturdy, absolutely no structural problems. The leather on the arms is crackly but in good condition. (I call it patina.) These are really comfortable. If you can take them on Thursday, you can have two large suede leather pillows like the one you see on on one of them. --Forwarded Message Attachment-- From: neighbor.stefanie@gmail.com To: neighborhood@highlandparkpa.com Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 13:03:09 -0400 Subject: For Sale: Red Comfy Armchair Ikea Tullsta armchair for sale.
