About this object
The background is turquoise-blue, a tall central handle is formed of three curving branches rising from the shell-like cups reserved in white and each painted with pastoral motifs in natural colors. Six gilt masks of dolphins on high relief encircle the exterior, three of them topping the three feet with molded leaves between them.
