7.5" Lead Crystal "Corona" Vase from the Swedish glassworks Orrefors. HAS SEVERAL BASE CHIPS ON THE VERY BOTTOM, 3 CORNERS ON SAME SIDE, SEE PICTURES. They are photographed on the chipped side facing as well, in my opinion it is not easy to notice when sitting flat and displayed and they are all one one side of the bottom of the vase. I took numerous pictures to try to capture the small chips from all the angles including flat.
