Overall in very good condition. The glass with a few scattered air bubble inclusions inherent in the making, as well as a U-shaped glass thread extending down from the top rim of the vase which adhered itself to the interior during the making. A highly sculptural example displaying impressive monumental scale and beautiful form. The interior and underbase are strongly iridized, imparting the vase with incredible color and luminosity.
