Overall very good original condition. The vase with a few scattered small and minor air bubbles and inclusions inherent in the making and consistent with the technique. The body of the vase with one burst air bubble located along outer edge of the rim. The underbase of the vase with two minor areas of indentation that appear to have been polished, possibly at the time of production. The vase with a couple of very minor pinprick chips along the rim. The vase when viewed in person presents with highly saturated coloration and good contrast.
