We found this item at an estate sale - beautiful iridescence and shape. It has no external damage, but we did find that there is an internal crack or flaw that runs half way around the vase. We found this by looking at the piece with a strong light. It seems very sturdy, so we are no worried about it falling apart in our display.

Thank you for the comments and recommendations so far.
Thanks for the information obscurities!

We had, at one time, listed this for sale, but decided to keep it. However, we are rethinking about selling this beauty. Do we have to remove it from this show and tell - if so, how do we go about it?
