Condition
Overall in excellent condition. The plate with some small and minute air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the making and not visually detracting. The glass surfaces with extremely light and minor surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling. A rare and complex design by Frederick Carder executed in a vibrant color palette.
