Condition

Overall very good original condition. The glazed surface with a few minor imperfections inherent in the making. With approximately seven minor flecks (measuring less than a 1.8 inch in length) dispersed on the glazed surface to the top outer edge of the footed portion of the vase. These are minor and appear presently stable and do not impact the overall presentation or appearance of the work. The top rim of the vase with one small toolmark, which has been glazed over and therefore is inherent in the making and not an issue of condition. The interior with scattered surface dirt from use. The interior of the vase executed in a black glaze. A superb color and rare shape.
