Tiffany Studios

Overall in very good condition. With some occasional small and minute air bubble and particulate inclusions inherent in the making and not at all visually detracting. The upper rim with several very short, successive tool marks, also inherent in the making and not visually detracting. The interior coupe with some light surface soiling to the central recessed contours, and with two small open air bubbles inherent in the making and only visible under close inspection. A gorgeous example distinguished by a delicate and graceful silhouette. The green pulled feather decoration is beautifully rendered, imparting significant visual depth to the exterior of the coupe. Please note that the catalogue photography was taken with both frontal reflected and interior remitted light; when viewed under standard reflected light conditions the vase is less saturated in coloration; the coloration is more subtle and naturalistic. The patinated bronze base with evidence of rubbing to finish, minor surface scratches and a few inherent irregularities to the outermost edge of the foot. The coloration of the patina is a rich red golden hue. -----
