Condition
Overall in very good condition. These vases have been examined under blacklight, and there is no evidence of prior restoration. Each presents with a few very minor surface irregularities which are inherent in the production of the vase. As commonly seen, all of the vases with a few very small and minor glaze flecks to the raised contours of the floral decorative elements. This is an assembled set and each of the vases presents with a slightly varied green tone to the glazes. Each of the interiors with some minor surface dirt.
