The neck is finely decorated with a band of lappets each enclosing a lotus flowerhead, below a ruyi band around the mouth. The handle is colourfully decorated with abstract scrolls, beginning and terminating in a gilt-bronze animal mask. The tubular spout has multi-coloured lappets, similarly emerging from a gilt-bronze mask. The domed cover is decorated with three taotie masks, below a gilt bud finial enclosed by radiating petals.
