Condition
Overall in excellent condition. There are two tiny adjacent surface scratches (1/8 inch long) to the exterior just below the shoulder which are exceedingly minor and barely visible even under close inspection. The interior with light surface soiling. The exterior surfaces are beautifully iridized, imparting the vase with a deep rich luminous color that is not sufficiently captured in the catalogue illustration. A stunning example in rare “Mazarin” blue.
