Overall in excellent condition. The favrile glass with a few tiny air bubble and particulate inclusions inherent in the making. The exterior surfaces with a few very light surface scratches. The exterior and interior of this vase are beautifully iridized, imparting the surfaces with strong luminous color throughout. The stylized decoration going around the full circumference of the exterior is highly artistic imparting the vase with great visual interest and fluid movement. The scale is quite substantial and impressive and the vase has strong visual presence.
