Additional Notes & Condition Report
CONDITION REPORT UPDATED ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17:
the update is that there is an area of short concentrated scratch/scuff marks along an area of the top rim edge of the vase and that there are approximately three small bevels to the glass also along the top rim edge, possibly as made at the factory or else possibly later, otherwise,
appears to be in generally good condition; the interior appears to be generally nice and clean, i.e., not water stained or clouded; there are scattered remnants of a white or gray-white colored patina in some of the crevices, less so along the shoulder and neck area; the body base color appears to be a pale translucent orange-root beer coloration; the exterior finish is not frosted rather it is entirely glossy

The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging.
