The vase, by artist William Moorcroft, is bulbous with a narrow top that flares out into a lip. Two cat-like creatures are on either side of the top. The creatures have their front paws on the vase and back paws on the base of the body. Their tails flow around the vase. The body of the vase features raised floral designs.
