The object is a metal tankard with a handle and lid. The tankard has a rounded base that widens and then tapers inward. A horizontal groove encircles the tankard near the bottom. The body of the tankard is smooth with some dark spots. The handle is attached to the right side, curved, and ends in a decorative flourish. The lid is domed with a small finial on top and a hinge connecting it to the tankard. The entire object appears to be made of silver or another shiny metal. It sits on a white surface against a white wall. The tankard is by William Will.
