It depicts a scene of an 18th century gentleman greeting a lady in the front center body of the urn. The scene is framed with a gilt garland made of C-scrolls and rocailles that are painted pink, yellow and blue. Another hand painted bay leaves garland follow it. The back of the urn is adorned with a hand painted country scene of a castle beside a river that is framed by a garland of gilt leaves and a bouquet of roses.

The urn is bronze mounted and enhanced by sphinxes handles at each side of the neck. The bottom of the neck is embellished by a bronze collar made of scrolls and leaves. A round bronze base with acanthus leaves and lion paws feet that is decorated with scalloped swags enhanced by tassels and beads supports the porcelain urn.
