Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the pearlescent nature of the glaze visible in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Visible only upon extremely close inspection in raking light are a few faint and unobtrusive surface scratches in places.
