This vase is in excellent condition for being as old as it is....107 years old.  This bottle has no chips or cracks or other damage.
There may always be small manufacturer's defects or microscopic blemishes or flaws consistent with age and use which is to be expected in antique and vintage items.  Rest assured that any major issues will always be both documented and photographed to the best of my ability. Be sure and check the photos as they are an integral part of the description and do a much better job of showing condition issues than what I can explain through the use of the written word.   Use the magnification tool and feel free to ask questions.
I may have more photos available and can always take more so ask for specific views if you want to see things I may not be showing to your satisfaction.
Importance of Photos:
I can not stress enough the importance of checking the photos and looking carefully at them with the magnifying tool.  Photos are part of the description, just as much as the written word is, and if it is in the photos, any visible defect, even though I may not have pointed it out in writing, can not be used for a 'not as described' complaint.   I am an old lady with fading eyesight and I do sometimes miss things that the photos catch, or maybe there are other defects that I feel it is more important to point out in the written word.  Ebay only gives us so much space, so we must prioritize.  If you see something in the photos that bothers you, by all means, point it out and ask me about it.

Alert !!!!!
This darn virusthing (I'm not allowed to use the actual word as the powers that be are a little paranoid) can live 24 hours on cardboard and 3 days on plastic such as the type of packing tape I use or the plastic padded shipping envelopes.  The good news is that plastic can be easily disinfected and made safe.  If you get a cardboard box in the mail, set it aside in a secure place that is not in your home...maybe your garage or a locked shed...and leave it alone for over 24 hours.  Wash your hands immediately after handling it and don't touch your face before you do.  Then after those 24 hours or more,  wipe the parts with tape on them down with disinfectant.  Leave the disinfectant on for 20 seconds before wiping dry.  Wash your hands immediately when you are done.  A very cheap but efficient disinfectant can be made from a simple bleach and water solution.  Most bleach bottles have the ratios on them for disinfectants.   We used it all of the time in the nursing home kitchen I worked in as a kid, as the commercial stuff used to add to rinse water for washing our pots, pans and dishes was so darned expensive.   So if you can't get the wipes or spray in the store, don't worry about it...you probably already have a bottle of bleach with your laundry stuff or cleaning supplies.   The person who shipped you your package may be entirely safe, but none of us know how many people handle your package while it is on its way to you so take precautions to keep you and your family safe.
Disclaimer:
Photographs with a ruler or the metal tape measures are there to show scale only and usually will not show exact
measurements
due to
the fact that the measurements on a wooden ruler start 1/16" into the wood, and
the ruler,
and also the item being different
lengths
away
from the camera lens than the ruler or tape measure,
even if it is only a fraction of an inch will also create a perspective issue.  Please always go by my stated measurements rather
than guessing at the exact sized based on the photos.
Note:
Because of the way computers and cell phones are set to interpret colors that show on their monitors, and because of people's perceptions of color descriptions,  the colors you see on your screen may not be exactly the colors you will get but might appear a bit darker or lighter, or a shade or two different.  I always do
my best to show colors as close to reality as I can get them, but keep that in mind when you make your orders as, although I will accept returns for any reason, I WILL NOT accept a small difference in color shades as a valid rea
son for a 'not as described' claim so that you can save on shipping.  Of course, if I say that something is black and it turns out to be red when you get it, then
obviously the fault is mine and the 'not as described' claim will be accepted
If you need to have a perfect match and can send a fabric swatch or paint chip, or something else that you have that shows the exact color that you need, I
will be happy to hold the item you are thinking of purchasing so that you can send me your swatch or whatever for me to use to check for that match.  I can photograph
the item next to the color sample that you send and you can make your final decision as to whether you want to purchase from that.
Shipping:
I purchase postage online when I package the item.  The tracking number shows when that postage was purchased and does not start when I actually take the item to the post office to be shipped.  Note, I show a 4 business day handling period and although I may get your item packaged and ready to ship on the first or second day, It may take all of those four days for me to get your item to the post office to actually ship it.  Please don't be concerned if you check your tracking number and find out that the item has not yet been shipped if it is within my four-day shipping window.   If you do need your item in a hurry for a birthday or special occasion, just let me know and I will be happy to do my best for you.
