Condition

Overall in very good condition. The glass surfaces with a few occasional minute air bubble inclusions. The handles with two subtle dark linear lines just below the top attachment point which appear symmetrical on both sides and inherent in the making. The exterior with a few minute open air bubbles. All of the above noted issues appear inherent in the making and not at all visually detracting from the vase. The bottom vase interior with light surface soiling. A stunning piece displaying extraordinary saturated coloration and exquisite carving.
