The sculpture features an ornate, box-like structure mounted on three legs, each ending in a stylized animal paw. The main body of the sculpture is decorated with repeating Gothic arches and circular medallion-like rosettes on its sides, with detailed patterns filling the spaces in between. The material appears to be metallic, likely cast iron, with a monochromatic shade resembling dark gray or black. The object has a circular opening on the top. Its design and animalistic legs give it a decorative and sturdy appearance.
