Overall in very good condition. The pâte de verre with minor air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent to the production of the piece and with minor surface scratches concentrated to the rim, consistent with age and gentle handling. A lively and dynamically illustrated model from Gabriel Argy Rousseau that presents very well.
