Tiffany Studios

Overall in very good condition. With a minute pinhead size surface fleck (1 mm) to the midsection of the neck. The underside with a very very minor post-production flaw created at the factory, resulting in a small area (1/8 x 1/4 inch) adjacent to the polished foot lacking iridescence. This area shows no depth and is the likely result of the grinding wheel during the polishing of the underbase; it is only visibly when inspecting the underbase. With a few light and fine surface scratches to the lower body of the vase. The exterior is intensely iridized, imparting the vase with strong luminosity and a brilliant range of jewel tone hues. A fine example displaying strong color and iridescence.
