Condition
Overall in very good original condition. When viewed in person, the glass presents with an intense cobalt blue even brighter than in the catalogue illustration. The interior of the neck with gilt decoration. The glass with a few minute air bubbles and particulate inclusions with two faint associated points of discoloration inherent in the making and not at all visually disruptive. The glass surfaces with a few occasional surface scratches consistent with gentle handling. A beautiful example with great presence when viewed first hand.
