Daum

Overall very good original condition. With a minor possible chip to the frog on the top of the lid, which serves as a handle for the work. With some minor rubbing to the top surface of the handle element, likely caused from use, and has acquired an attractive polished appearance. With minor surface dirt and very minor imperfections in the glass, which are inherent in the making and not an issue of condition. The work with beautiful purple highlights scattered throughout which add depth to the design. With felt pads to the underside.
