Paperweight Vase, circa 1900-1903

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall good condition. The glass presents with a caramel ground, more translucent towards the base, richly decorated with agate-like swirls in shades of emerald, turquoise, lavender, almond, and crimson. Presents with a slight bruise to the top rim, not visually distracting. The mid-shoulder with an inclusion and minute radiating lines forming a depression on the surface (approximately ¹⁄₈ in.). The glass presents with a cluster of air bubbles, some surface reaching, inherent to the making. With very fine surface scratches commensurate with age and gentle use. Presents well and ready for display.
