The curiously large bell bowl painted in opaque white with a border of flowerheads linked by scrolling leaves, the flowers including honeysuckle, carnation and a group of three auriculas, traces of gilding to the rim, on a double-series stem with a multi-ply corkscrew encircled by a pair of opaque white spiral tapes, over a conical foot, 19.8cm high

A similar border occurs on a wine glass in the Corning Museum of Glass, illustrated by James Rush, A Beilby Odyssey (1987), p.71, pl.33c.
