Condition
Overall in very good original condition. The vase presents with stripes of clear green, blues, eggplant and deep red which are accurately shown in the catalogue illustration. The glass with some small air bubbles and a few particulate inclusions inherent in the making. The surfaces with a few light surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling. A beautiful example of the model with great scale and strong presence when viewed in person.
