The two longer sides are decorated with figures: a man hunting boar with a dog, in a framework of rocaille, wine and floral motifs. There is a stylised, five-pointed coronet over the rocaille. The other side shows a male figure carrying a vine, facing a child who picks the grapes. Below them, are rocaille ornaments with lattice and stylised leaves. The four narrow sides are decorated with similar motifs.
