The bowl is plain and sits on a double series opaque twist stem consisting of two white enamel cords wound around a central gauze. The stem ends in a conical foot which measures 7.2 cm (2.9 inches) in diameter. The glass is an impressive 21.3 cm (8.5 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. There is an unburst bubble in the metal of the foot along with some white inclusions dating from manufacture.
