*** Someone e-mailed me asked if there was a crack in the base of the vase. There are no cracks.. what you see in the Pictures are seams or mold line (whatever they are called) The only thing on the base are the little inclusions on the outside rim on the outside rim of the base in a few places.. these are inside the glass and cannot be felt on the outside. An reputable antique dealer that looked at the vase told me this was not damage but inside the glass.
