Condition

Overall in very good original condition. When viewed in person, the vase displays rich colors from purple to pink and tangerine. The glass with air bubbles and minute particulate inclusions inherent in the making. The upper rim with a minor open air bubble along the edge, not at all visually distractive. The glass surfaces present with minor surface scratches consistent with gentle use. A very good example of the model.
