Condition

This work is in very good and sound condition overall. There is evidence of wear and handling to the individual glass forms, some of which have visible surface abrasions. There is evidence of wear between each of the glass forms, resulting in minor losses in certain areas. The small losses and abrasions between each element are only visible under close inspection, and are inherent to the construction of the work.
