The vase is vintage with no chips just a little lime residue around the top. I have not tried to clean it; but, a magic eraser will work great! I have used that method on other head vases. It is perfect for collectors who appreciate the beauty and rarity of vintage items. This item is perfect for those who are passionate about decorative pottery and glassware, and it would make a great addition to any collection. She is so pretty!
