A shallow oval vessel with an angular, upward-curving handle that tapers downwards in a volute. The spout is correspondingly curved. It has a short, slightly angled foot ring, polished smooth. The vessel wall, handle, and spout are decorated with filigree overlays and embedded polychrome enamel in delicate shades of green, pink, and blue. The ornaments are in the form of leaf tendrils and blossoms, with applied small silver beads and inset, beaded stones. All silver-appearing parts are gilded, and the enamel surface is roughened using a punched technique. (721396)
