A metal porringer with a handle on top, titled "Porringer" by artist Frederick Bassett. The porringer is made of silver-colored metal with a wide, shallow bowl and a decorative handle. The bowl has a circular depression in the center and a raised rim around the edge. The handle is ornate and features curved, scroll-like designs on either side of a central triangular shape. The metal has a worn, aged appearance with visible tarnish and scratches. The porringer is positioned at an angle, with its front facing the viewer and its handle pointing upwards. The background is plain white.
