This impressive dish is supported by a shaped base realistically modelled in the form of a tapering branch accented with five individual leaf designs.

This unusual dish is accompanied by a hallmarked serving ladle with a leaf decorated bowl.

The handle is modelled in the form of a narrow branch accented with further leaf ornamentation, reflecting the design of the base.
