Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate but the vase is less bright in reality. The gilding is rubbed and tarnished. The porcelain is 19th century, as the gilt-bronze mounts. As stated in the catalogue, the porcelain has been restored and cracks are visible to the inner of the vase. Elegant vase with nice gilt-bronze chasing.
