The curved cover shows a square-shaped field of rounded corners at the bottom there are two crowned heraldic animals, holding halberds in their paws. Above the field is a striped bowl with a symmetrical bunch of flowers. On the two sides of the vase, the initials M and K appear. The inside hides the punctured copper shredder, in a zigzag frame work. The top is decorated with two hollow shell motifs.
