Overall very good color and condition, no damage or restoration detected. There is a small patch of yellow residue to the lower interior well of the vase depicted at the center of the photograph. The applied handles to each vessel remain fully intact. Please note that the color reproduction in the catalogue is not accurate. The colors in the catalogue appear dull overall. In reality the blues are slightly cooler and more vibrant. The vase depicted in the center of the photograph in reality is a pale straw color. Other vessels : 5 1/2 in. (14 cm) high 5 3/4 in. (14.5 cm) high
