Venini

Overall in very good original condition. When viewed in person, the red is darker than in the catalogue illustration. The glass with a few minor air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the making and not visually distracting. The surfaces with light surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling. Surface dirt to the upper part of the neck and stopper. The bottle has retained its original stopper which is in very good condition. A very decorative piece.
