To the unaided eye, the piece looks to be in good condition. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals a number of stabilized cracks that do not appear to go all the way through the walls of the vase. One of these is located between the two openings in the vase while the others run vertically in the lower third of the piece. The surface finish is in good condition, with minimal areas of abrasion and pigment loss. The underside of the piece shows typical abrasions from normal wear.
