There ae some minute and minor imperfections, due to and during the production process like some ashes to outer casing, imbedded in one area,"one can barely feel it, also there is a bubble to the interior casing green, as close up image showcases the bubble. Also in the interior casing, along with a minuscule ash,(also during the process), there is also a portion on to one side profile side view, which looks as if the tols/padding or paddle slightly flattened it, and one can see a 1' inch area like a streak translucent and back to white opalescent coloring. The 2nd and 6th. image same side near dimpled area, one can see an internal, (smudge), of sorts, perhaps down with gloves when casing the middle and outer layers, and as we stated, no two are alike, and perhaps human imperfections also denote the individualized pieces a such, but beyond this the piece is gorgeous. less

The Murano during it's production, as no 2 pieces are ever alike, and unique onto themselves, has 1 bubble within the interior cased section, ALSO to a couple of the outer sides, one can see imbedded ashes, minuscule onto themselves, but on can feel them and IF scrutinize the piece under magnifier to see the black ashes, perhaps the gloves or paddle, some of the molding material tools and techniques utilized in shaping Murano, beyond the hand blowing process which takes place. Also on one side of the outer ayer, near a dimple, interior to the body it looks as if there was a indent print from padding, or glove , we have not ascertained it, but there are no chips nor flea bites, any aforementioned is interior to the body during the production process, as we have ascertained, otherwise a gorgeous Murano.Their is a unison and coordinated steps when fashioning Murano pieces, sometimes done alone, and sometimes down with a group of people /artisans doing their scope or skilled part in the final outlook and uniformity of each piece.. Polished pontil base bottom, with minor scratches, indicative and due to use, movement to and fro, IF one did not place any protective pads underneath. Sometimes depending upon the natural light, the green takes on more of a green hue or more like a minty green, sunlight hidden behind clouds, or cast, etc. In good, gently used to great condition. less
