Condition Report:
Overall in very good condition. The patina displays a variety of colors from burnt orange to russet brown and presents with irregular application inherent to production as well as scattered areas of discoloration throughout consistent with age. The metal presents with an irregular hammered surface inherent to production. The metal presents with scattered faint surface scratches throughout consistent with gentle handling, as well as light surface soiling and occasional verdigris spots particularly concentrated to the interior of the vase.
