Overall in very good original condition. The vase has been examined under black light and presents no evidence of prior restoration. The surfaces with a few light surface scratches and light surface soiling consistent with age and gentle handling. The upper rim with a minute chip to the glaze on the outside. A wonderful example of Zsolnay's work, with great scale and colorful presence when viewed in person.
