CONDITION NOTE: Used, but in overall excellent vintage condition. This piece does not appear to have any chips, cracks, hairlines, crazing, or repairs that I can see or feel (see pictures). There seems to be some slight surface blemishes/dirt on the vase (zoom in on pictures to see more closely). Since these are vintage pieces of art, they do come with natural imperfections that add to their character (zoom into photos to look for any imperfections). Does not come with any original boxes, packaging, or any related paperwork. Will be packed carefully and insured for safe shipping. See detailed (zoom-able) pictures to know what you are purchasing.
