Spring Vase designed by Kaj Franck, made in Nuutajärvi, Finland. The color is violet. The Nuutajärvi sticker is partially remaining. There are no cracks or chips, but as it is old, there are some scratches and minor imperfections that are difficult to see in the photos. I have not used it with water myself, but there is some white water stain-like dirt remaining on the bottom. Please see photo 8. This is an old item made in the 1950s. Please consider this if you understand vintage items.
