The swelling body is faceted into eight sides and stands on an exceedingly short, round foot. Its protruding shoulder line is faceted into eight sides, continued into a splayed neck. Each side of the body shows a faceted, almond-shaped ornament, framed by gold. It is surmounted by gilt, geometrical, stylised flower motifs. The neck is lined by a meander pattern and stars, much faded. The inside of the top rim is gilt in a broad stripe. The stopper is of turquoise, transparent glass, faceted into six sides and ending in a point.
