PLATE XXX - A
of the book. Not a common piece you can find everyday for sale, especially with the raised opalescent ribbing which adds to its attractiveness! The outer surfaces have a lovely soft satiny pearl iridescence, while the the inner rim and neck, a gorgeous shell pink color (see photographs). This desirable and handsome shape lends itself well to the overall decoration. We have seen this shape offered in the Oriental Jade which is the green color in the past, but very seldom in this shape in the Oriental Pink Poppy. The vase has a polished pontil on the underside. This vase is not signed, but definitely Steuben!
A fantastic example to add to any great collection of Steuben art glass from the Fredrick Carder period!

: The vase stands approximately 6 inches in height. It measures approximately 4-1/2 inches across in diameter at the shoulder.

All measurements are approximate, but close.
Condition
: We carefully examined this item. NO Chips, Cracks, Stains, Repairs or Restorations were noted. There is a very short 3/8" scratch between two ribs just below the shoulder on one side (see last three photographs). There is also a very small circular shape mark measuring less than 1/8" on one of the ribs just above the shoulder (see photograph #7 at the 11:30 position near the edge of the rim). There is normal wear on the underside from display, but this is not excessive and very light. Please take the time to carefully review all the photographs for more details. Contact seller with any questions or if you require additional photographs.
