THIS LISTING FEATURES A VERY PRETTY ●●●ART GLASS VASE.●●● THE FIRST THING I NEED TO TELL YOU IS THAT THE GLASS IS SORT OF DICHROIC SO HOW IT LOOKS DEPENDS ON THE LIGHTING & BACKGROUND. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, THE APPEARANCE IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT DEPENDING HOW THE LIGHT HITS IT ON THE TWO BACKGROUNDS. WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTOS WITH THE LIGHT BACKGROUND IS PRETTY MUCH HOW THE GLASS LOOKS WITH THE NAKED EYE. HOWEVER, THE BLACK BACKGROUND ENHANCES THE WONDERFUL COLORS THAT ARE INHERENT TO THIS GLASS. THAT SAID, THE REST OF THIS DESCRIPTION HIGHLIGHTS THE LOVELY TREFOIL MOUTH AND THE GRACEFUL CLEAR SLOPED BASE. THIS VASE IS UNSIGNED AND THERE IS NO LABEL. SO I CANNOT PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THE MAKER, THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN OR THE AGE. I AM GUESSTIMATING THE DECADE OF MANUFACTURE TO HAVE BEEN THE 1990s. THIS IS A TRUE INVESTMENT PIECE TO TREASURE FOR MANY YEARS TO COME. IT WILL SURELY BE A VERY APPRECIATED GIFT FOR A SPECIAL PERSON IN YOUR CIRCLE OF FAMILY & FRIENDS. I AM OFFERING THIS EXCELLENT VASE FOR WHAT I THINK IS A VERY REASONABLE PRICE. I PACK EXTREMELY WELL SO YOUR SHIPMENT WILL BE ●●●WORRY FREE.●●● THANKS FOR VIEWING MY AUCTION AND ●●●GOOD LUCK●●● IF YOU DECIDE TO BID.

THE CONDITION:
●●●Please be sure to allow the photos to guide you as they are the lion’s share of this description.●●● I am pleased to tell you that this vase is in beautiful condition. This is what I see to describe: there may be some soil way down inside; there is some minor table friction and a scratch on the base; there is an area on the base that appears to be little areas of missing glass. It is possible that these are remnants of a cut pontil. ●●●I hope I have not missed anything. If I did, it was surely minor and 100% unintentional.●●● Just about 99% of the items I offer are vintage/pre-owned and may show a small amount of handling. I often heighten the contrast in my pictures to bring out all the details. The color you see may be slightly brighter or different than it actually is. Please inquire if you are concerned.
