Condition
Overall excellent condition. Please note this vase is cased, which was omitted from the description in the printed catalogue. The glass present with a few very small and minor airbubbles and inclusions, which are inherent in the making. With minor surface scratches to the underbase consistent with gentle use. This vase presents with a deeply saturated blue hue to the original patine, which remains in excellent condition throughout. An excellent example of this model in which the patine details further heightens the depth and intricacy of the decoration.
