The cylindrical carafe with a narrow neck has a ball-shaped stopper. The bottom of the neck is lined with spot and lozenge motifs, enriched with ribbons and garlands of flower bunches at the bottom. Below and between the garlands is a flower. The boughs decorating the neck are lined with bunches of flowers, while yellow and red lines run along the top rim. The stopper is painted with a purple flower. The dominant colours of the decoration are: purple, red, yellow and green. The bottom of one of the carafes is painted with an "H" in red and blue and an „11” in blue, while the other shows „10” and a red „16” crossed with blue - these are probably marks of porcelain painters, as yet unidentified.
