Condition
Very good overall condition.
Two burst bubbles on the edge of the rim consistent with the material and the manufacturing process. One large burst bubble inside the vase on approximately 0.8 x 0.8 cm. Minor dents and scratches hardly visible to the bronze base and some traces of dust. Otherwise in really good condition. The thickness of the glass is quite spectacular and even more impressive in light of the technique used by Gallé for this vase.
