Overall, this is a lovely vintage piece with good color, attractive satin finish, and intact decorative eyes.
There is ONE small flea bite/chip on the back corner of the upper book/base. It is located on the rear corner and is shown clearly in the close-up photograph.
The chip is relatively small and does not detract significantly from the display appearance when viewed from the front, but it is present and should be considered when evaluating condition.
There may also be minor surface wear consistent with age and previous display.
Please review all photographs carefully, including the close-up photograph of the chip. Photos are considered part of the description.
A wonderful collectible for a Westmoreland Glass, owl, blue satin glass, or vintage glass collector.
