A silver and glass centerpiece features two circular tiers supported by four tapered pillars. The lower tier rests on curved legs with paw feet, accented by draped garlands and oval medallions. At the center stands a small silver figure of a man in a tunic on a pedestal. Both trays are finished with upright, decorative openwork borders along the rims.
