Condition
Overall in very good condition. With a few minute air bubble and particulate inclusions inherent in the making and not at all visually detracting. The exterior surfaces with some light surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling. The interior coupe with a small piece of excess glass near the center, inherent in the making. The interior of the coupe and underside of the decorated foot are beautifully iridized, imparting the vase with strong luminous color on the exterior. The underbase with discretely applied accession number by prior owner. A nice example displaying with rich iridescent and opalescent white.
