About this work

The rounded three-lobed top rests on three cast, tapering, slightly curved feet, each decorated with a recessed, roughened field. On the raised, flat rim, a laurel wreath bound with ribbons is applied along the outer side. In the center of the top is a smooth ring connected by three vertical bands to a second, equally large ring, in which the red copper inner bowl rests. This has a round hole in the center, where it is connected to the top with a silver screw and nut.
