O corpo tem forma de balaústre decorado canelados côncavos e por molduras ovais centrais, delineadas por grinaldas de ramos, numa gravação muito suave e minuciosa. As linhas essenciais da peça são avivadas por frisos de perlados.

Bico em forma de colo de cisne, ornamentado com duas fileiras de finos perlados e terminando numa folha de acanto.

Asa lisa em pau-santo.

A tampa, em forma de campânula, é decorada com o mesmo canelado côncavo do bojo e um friso de folhas de acanto, sendo o pomo em forma de urna.

Este exemplar revela sinais do final da centúria, quando se faz a transição para o estilo neoclássico, em que um dos principais motivos decorativos são as formas caneladas, inspiradas na ourivesaria romana.
