Condition
Overall in very good condition. With some very minor surface irregularities (airbubbles and inclusions) which are inherent in the glass and carving technique. The vase shows some minor color bleeding in the blue-green medallions into the lighter color in ground. With one burst air bubble on the underbase which is also original to the production of the work. With minor surface dirt throughout, concentrated to the crevices, and some wax residue to the base which is removable.
