Overall condition very good, with no damage or restoration detected. There are occasional dark flecks of impurities to the outer surface of the glass as a result of the manufacturing process; however these do not adversely affect the overall attractive appearance of the vase. The outer surface of the vase has a subtle, attractive, pearl-like iridescence that is not fully clear in the photograph. There is a good clear acid stamp mark to the underside of the vase. Further photographs of the vase may be provided on request.
