It is clad in copper sheet, partially silver-plated. The sides and lid are adorned with plaques depicting various animals, human-animal hybrids and mythical figures, such as centaurs. The depictions are framed by a border featuring floral and interlaced motifs. The border is partially detached and damaged.
