Condition Report:
Overall in very good condition. When viewed firsthand, the vase displays a rich ultramarine hue with vibrant iridescence. The glass displays with scattered minor air bubbles, particulate inclusions and minor surface irregularities inherent in the making and not visually detractive.
The glass surfaces with some occasional extremely fine and minor surface scratches, consistent with age and gentle handling. The interior of the vase with some light surface soiling. The interior of the vase with a surface irregularity likely resulting from an air bubble on the surface during production, not visibly detractive and inherent to the production process. The underside of the vase inscribed in white with an old accession. A finely decorated vase with complex form.
