Vintage bentwood cane‑seated chair — solid frame, damaged cane & split front seat rim

Single vintage bentwood cane-seated chair with a classic curved back and original woven cane seat. The frame is solid and stable with visible surface wear and paint chips; close-up photos show a split/cracked front seat rim and multiple broken cane strands that will need attention.
