Lot 127

Inspection under natural and UV light reveals the vase to be in very good condition consistent with age and handling.

The decoration, including the raised enamel details, is well preserved, with only occasional points of typical light, not obvious handling wear to the gilding. The glaze to the main decoration is very finely, unobtrusively crackled with age. The vase is somewhat dirty, especially to the upward-facing surfaces of the mouth and shoulder, but test-cleaning a small area of the mouth indicates the surface dirt is easily removed with water.
