A silver vessel with a cylindrical body narrows slightly toward the top and sits on a wide, tiered base. A handle attaches at the back, and the interior is gilded. An engraved design on the front features a central oval containing a standing figure, framed by swirling scrolls and winged children to our left and right. A small face anchors the bottom of the ornate frame.
