This painting features a variety of objects arranged horizontally on a surface. The items include a small brown egg, bottles and containers in various sizes and colors, a large white pitcher, smaller bowls and cups, white ceramic teapots stacked on top of one another, a rusty red container, a turquoise jug with orange patterns or discoloration, and a white funnel. The objects are layered, with some behind others. The background is a solid textured dark grayish-blue, and the surface under the objects looks like a flat tan table or counter.
