Dark metal vessel in the shape of a dog. The dog has a long snout and pointed ears. The dog's body is adorned with etched stripes. The dog's front paws are on a rectangular base. The dog's back legs are stretched out behind it, and a spout extends from the back of the dog's body. A handle curves up from the back of the base, over the dog's back. The background is gray, fading to black at the top. The object casts a shadow on the surface below. The object titled "Vessel with Reclining Dog" is by artist unknown.
