Condition
Overall in very good condition. With several small air bubble inclusions scattered throughout and minor surface imperfections inherent in the making. There are no visible calcifications on the interior. The vase presents beautifully in person with substantial presence and scale. The greens and whites delineating the lilies are more vibrant and show far greater definition and distinction against the clear glass ground than portrayed in the catalogue illustration. The decoration is quite whimsical and painterly.
