A major art collector has acquired every work by Vivian Goddard. I saw this and won the bid years ago, then had it cleaned. Tim Hall, renowned art restorer, did a little touch up on some damage and that was it.
Has been hanging on my wall ever since and it occurred to me that one of their collectors might even want to bid on it.
I welcome all offers and conversations regarding Vivian Goddard, San Francisco. https://tinyurl.com/4duab2n6PS
I would like to remain the owner and welcome a factual conversation about her.

This dining set was bought in 1992. The table has metal/chrome legs with a beveled glass top that is 1/4 inch thick and heavy. Has a small chip on the edge and minor, tiny scratches on the surface. It has approximately a diameter of 42"with 3/8" thickness.
The chair has a cantilever design, and is made of leather. Its dimensions are 32 inches high, 19 inches wide and 21 inches deep. Under each leather seat, there is a "1-92" that is etched on the leather itself. There is also a label under the chair that is attached on each chrome leg that reads "Made in Italy." There are signs of wear and tear in the chair, more visibly seen in the stitched areas. It has tears/splits from 1-2 inches in size. This is more visible in the stitches on the leather seat close to the front legs. This is caused by the stitches giving way. All these can be seen in the pictures above. Despite the flaws due to wear in the leather seats, as seen in the pictures, they are still very usable and functional.
