A hammered copper bowl is shaped with a rounded body tapering to a narrow base. The reddish-brown surface is mottled with shallow indentations. A wide lid rests on the rim, holding a circular enamel medallion at its center. This medallion depicts a stylized insect in shades of orange, yellow, and green against a black background, its wings spread wide. Faint green oxidation marks the copper shoulder beneath the overhanging lid.
