Overall the vase is in good condition, the embossed and chased detail of high quality. The detail to the vase remains very good with wear in keeping with the age and use with general scratches, marks and tarnishing and of course a little loss /rubbing of some detail. There are remnants of old polish to the recesses. The interior is heavily discoloured and tarnished. Around the high embossing of the figures, particularly the heads a few small cracks have started to appear where the metal appears brittle.
