The rim is chased and engraved with foliage motifs the domed lid is lined with lozenges and ends in a pineapple finial. The cast handle forms a question mark it is chased with an olive branch. The accompanying cylindrical glass bowl is rounded at the bottom, with clouded lines at the top rim. The decoration of the salt box is identical with that of the mustard bowl.
