This isn't absolutely stunning bowl. Pictures don't do it justice. Extremely thick and heavy piece of glass.  Very fine gold (adventurine) along the blue stripes. Polished bottom with some minor scratches as expected.  No other scratches does have a small flaked chip along one edge. Very hard to seePlease see all photos as they are also part of the description.  We do re-use clean shipping materials, but please be assured that your purchase will be wrapped with utmost care. .
