A bowl with a wide, flared up collar, with a flat rim that folds downwards, not too deep. The collar is decorated with a strip of engraved floral ornaments. These are twigs with stylized flowers and clusters. The bowl is made of one piece of metal, gold-plated. Openwork cover, with a flat edge, with convex teardrops, engraved. The cutouts give the impression of an oriental ornament. Forged from a single piece of sheet metal, gilded.
