The pear-shaped body with twisted flanges stands on a round, joint foot. The spout is decorated with two relief leaves. The letters E. d. R. / 1726 and, below a five-pointed crown, B. L. are engraved on the body. The black wooden handle shapes a question mark. The lid is domed and jointed, with a small tumbler. A finial, forming a flower, emerges from the middle of the lid. The maker's and the city's marks appear on the rim of the foot.
