Condition

Overall very good condition with no damage detected. The pasta glass figure to the interior has two very small clear glass shards adhered to its midsection from the making. The figure has an outstretched arm which is not evident in the catalogue illustration. The pasta glass elements are close to a coral red in reality, whereas in the catalogue and online photograph they appear slightly dull. In addition the pasta glass elements are all applied with gold powders which are not clearly evident in the photograph.
