Condition
Overall in excellent condition. With a few occasional small air bubble inclusions throughout, and with a few small and minor burst air bubbles to the vase interior, all inherent in the making. With a few very light and fine surface scratches isolated to the outermost exterior surfaces of the vase. The underbase with three small circular felt glides. The interior of the vase is beautifully iridized, imparting the vase with a great sense of luminosity which is not fully visible in the catalogue illustration. A beautiful example with impressive scale and presence, strong color, and a particularly painterly and impressionistic articulation of the Jonquil blossoms and leaves.
