Condition

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. With one minor burst air bubble located immediately below the flared rim. This is a very strong example of the motif, displaying strong coloration and finely executed decoration with distinct color separations.
