About this work

The object consists of the following parts: the base, the wall, the handle, two small chains, and two wooden stoppers. The cylindrical wall has a profiled rim at the top, which is completely flat on the upper side. Against the rim, on both sides in line with each other, holes are made in the shape of a standing rectangle, the top of which is rounded. In the handle, which is hollow towards the outside, two holes are drilled at the top near the attachment point for the two link chains to which the wooden stoppers are attached. One of them is missing. At the front, at the top, two stamped marks with respectively the crowned city coat of arms of Amsterdam and a head looking to the left, surrounded by a wreath.
