The molded handles are i the form of a large scroll to each side while the cover has molded pine cones alternating with oak leaves below the button finial in the form of a flower head with the center in blue. The outer rim of the cover and the stand have a narrow band of blue with stylized flower heads between a wavy blue line. The stand is circular with a raised center and with a lip around the edge to hold the tureen in place. Between this and the rim is a deep well.
