The vase is a bright and lively pink featuring blossoms of white, purple, and orange surrounded by foliage of similar shades. The design also uses 3D paint dots for added interest around the center of the flowers and on subtle vines creeping from the bouquet. These vases are in perfect condition. The hand-painted floral design is all in very good condition.
