Condition
Overall in excellent condition. The favrile glass with a few very small air bubble inclusions and the interior with two very small burst air bubbles inherent in the making. The exterior surfaces and interior rim with a few very light and fine surface scratches consistent with age and very gentle use. The outer rim with some very fine and light surface abrasions, and the inner and outer areas of the rim with some minor traces of old adhesive and surface residue. The bottom interior with some minor traces of light surface soiling. A stunning example displaying impressive scale, superb bold color and exquisite carving. The vase displays beautifully in person.
