DescriptionSmall, round lidded jar of blue, dipped jasperware with white sprig molded relief decoration. The sides of the round jar (.a) are separated by scrolls and leaves into three panels, each with a small scene. One shows two lions pulling a cart with three putti. The second scene shows two putti playing around a tree. The third scene shows three putti near a monument with a small bird in the air.

The round lid (.b) is decorated on the top with flower petals surrounding a small hole in the center. This is surrounded by a series of triangular leaves and a band of white at the top edge. The sides of the lid are decorated with a continuous band of various flowers and leaves. The top of the lid has acquired some dust and dirt over time, giving it a dark appearance.
