Cruet of clear glass (a) with a decorative stopper (b). The cruet is shaped like a pitcher with a round base and a ribbed body that tapers toward the top. It has a wide spout with a raised shallow lip and a thick handle that is flat on the top with a slight curve as it goes down to connect to the body of the cruet. The clear plastic stopper is capped with a cross pattée on top of a cylindrical column. This column is thinner than the bottom functional stopper section.
