L'opera è in condizioni buone e stabili. Leggere tracce di sporco e una piccola macchia lungo il collo del vaso. Alcune abrasioni superficiali con corrispondenti piccole cadute di materia alla base, la maggiore delle quali sul retro al centro. Graffi filiformi sulle aree azzurre lungo l'imboccatura e alla base. Esaminata alla luce ultravioletta, non presenta tracce evidenti di restauri. Tenuto conto di quanto sopra, è nostra opinione che l'opera sia in condizioni di conservazione molto buone.
The work is in good and stable condition. Light accretion and a small spot along the neck of the vase. Some superficial abrasions with corresponding small losses to the base, the major of which on the reverse to the centre. Hairline scratches to the light blue areas along the mouth and to the base. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is no indication of inpainting. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally very good condition.
