Her skirt is decorated with dragons, swirls,bows, etc. When the skirt is turned upside down, the top cup swivels so that two people can drink out of the marriage/wager cup at the same time.
The figure stands 6 1/2 inches high (at highest point) x 3 inches diameter at the widest point. Weighs 5.235 troy ounces. Her face and hair are finely detailed, especially her face which wears a lovely smile. There are a few minor dints on the rim of her skirt (see photos) that are commensurate with age and use.
