<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 418274, member: 8267&quot;]Some questions: Do you want to use the chair? Or are you trying to preserve potential value as an original antique? If you want to preserve value, you probably won&#039;t be able to sit in it. Old webbing and leather become weak with age, and are likely to tear with continued use. Wax and other &quot;conditioners&quot; for leather are designed for maintenance of new leather goods, and provide mostly cosmetic effects. They will likely darken aged leather, and will be difficult to remove in the future. So, if you are trying to preserve value it would probably be best to leave the leather alone. </p><p>If you want to use the chair, a thoughtful restoration may be a better choice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
