This vase is overall very good and ready to place condition. The gilding with areas of wear and rubbing to the high points overall revealing a red tone beneath. With some greater areas of wear, such as the areas beneath the handles and to one corner of the base where the white porcelain beneath is visible. The vase wobbles very slightly on its base could benefit from being further secured, but structurally secure overall.
