Large silver bowl with a wide mouth and short, thick base. The bowl has a decorative band around the top with a repeating pattern. The pattern consists of raised floral motifs and scrollwork, separated by flat rectangular sections with crisscross patterns. The background of the image fades from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The bowl casts a shadow on the surface below it. It is presented by Joseph Richardson Sr. as a piece titled "Punch Bowl".
