object type: Off-white stoneware, press moulded and salt-glazed. The dish was made in two halves, which were joined together.

The domed cover has wavy edges, and an applied knob moulded in the shape of a recumbent cow.  The surface of the dome has diamond shaped perforations in a diamond formation: four groups with four diamonds, and below them, four groups with three. The stand has a wavy edge, with a plain shallow well. All three pieces are decorated with panels of trellis diaper pattern flanked by scrolls, alternating with panels of wickerwork.
