The carved flowerheads with a few scattered air-bubbles consistent with the technique. The vase presents with occasional minor surface scratches that are consistent with gentle handling. One very minor bruise to the widest part of the vase and with a few minor adjacent light surface scratches. The underside of the vase with occasional light scratches consistent with handling. The gilding to the mark displays minor wear.
