As with the base, the body and applied foot also have undulating sides and edges. The foot , along with fruit, shell and foliate decoration, have four dolphin mask feet. The upper body has an applied rim to add ornamentation and strength. There are three blank cartouches; one on each side and one on the front. The unusual handle is a spectacular casting of a griffin. The quality of the chasing on these pieces is outstanding.
